Severed Survival is the debut album by American death metal band Autopsy, released by Peaceville Records on April 24, 1989. The album was preceded by two demos, Demo 87 and Critical Madness.
The album’s sound is rooted in Bay Area thrash metal and the emerging Death metal genre from Florida. Additionally, the music incorporates elements of doom metal. Lyrical themes explored on the album include death and gore.
It is considered to be one of the first death metal albums, and one of the genre’s most important releases, having helped lay the foundation for both the genre and its sub-genre of death-doom.
