Exactly. He did his own thing and was authentic. Totally true to himself and never putting on a show for anyone. He didn't try to fit into any metal stereotype or put on a facade for the fans, the press or his genre. In fact, he tried to dispel any preconceived noticed that some people might have had about him due to the type of music he played. He emphasized over and over again that he was just a nice, down to earth, normal guy and definitely was not evil. hehe. He was THE man. I wish more musicians were like him. Especially our metal guys.
@@dhelsgade same bere. I discovered him in 2020. About the only good thing to come from it. Chuck inspired me to play guitar differently ans even play his songs. Wish he was still alive, im 22 now and honestly i gotta say Death is my favorite band. It kills me I'll never truly witness the greatness that is Chuck Schuldiner and Death
I had the pleasure of meeting Chuck a couple of times and he was a very quiet reserved but very nice guy. The second time I met him I happened to be at Morrisound with the guys from Suffocation while they were recording. Chuck was there doing some work as well and he was very upset because Bevis & Butthead had just ripped on him and the video for the Philosopher. We all told him don't sweat it man, it's good publicity and he agreed. Couple months later Death had sold many thousands more records.
I understand your feelings. However, don't listen to the rumors - Chuck's sister Beth made sure that he had everything he needed medically, although it is true that it wiped out their savings entirely. The plain, sad reality is that Chuck had a very aggressive and destructive cancer, and it killed him. :(
R.I.P Eric Greif. Rest easy, and i hope if heaven exist, you'll be there hanging out with him. Thank you for everything you've done with Death and preserving and protecting the legacy of Chuck Schuldiner and Death.
it's hard to see him not smiling on this video. What a great dude, chuck is the best. I wish he was still alive, imagine how would the next death albums sound like.
@brunthroath6912 I'm fucking getting fatigued by this question. Chuck was not gay. I shared rooms with him on the road & off the road. We were buddies. He had long term girlfriends. The point is that we spent a lot of time with our hair, we wore fairly tight jeans, and we like kittens. Some of my good friends are gay, so I couldn't care less - but Chuck wasn't gay. OK? :) ERIC GREIF (the maker of this film & former manager of DEATH)
Hi Eric, I am a long time fan of death. My condolences to you and the family of Chuck. Thank you for all you are doing for the schuldiners and death fans around the world. Can't wait to watch the new upcoming Documentary. I wish you didn't have to defend Chucks sexuality, whatever it might be. Being a Canadian and loosing another great artist in Gord Downie this week, I wish chuck had the health care funding behind him to give him a better fight. Thanks for all you do for The death fans.
@anniegoosie Thanks, Goose. I'm glad everyone likes my little video of me & Chuck. I hope to edit some more from the hours & hours of film I have of our metal travels. And lots of shots of his nose. ERIC
god dammit, im glad he left such a great legacy behind, but it really sucks that hes gone. i know this sounds cliche, but he was so full of life in this video. its sad to know hes not around anymore.
What a great human being. I would do anything to have a convetsation with him. Or at least shake his hand. A huge inspiration on me as a musician and a person. Rest In Peace, Chuck.
Chuck was a legend, seemed like such a down to earth fella. I also like how he "breaks" away from most Death Metal stereotypes. Instead of the typical things associated with Death Metal, he likes to play with his hair.
I love you too, never forgot about you, you are my blood. Beth, thank you for this upload i saw this video lots of muc h time but ,, today on sunday 1 may...miss him im sorry.
EVERY time I see this guy, I cannot help but be reminded of the phrase, "You don't know what you've got, until it is gone." I am also reminded that "Life" can be a bitter fucking pill....so hard to swallow.
It always makes me smile, but a bit sad to see Chuck in a video like this. His music has been such an inspiration to my own guitar playing and song writing. It is a true testament to his talent, that I felt I knew him through his music, like I could have ran into him at a restaurant and pick up a conversion like old friends. Few others have shared their soul in such a way. He lives on in his music, in our memories, in our hearts, and in all the art he has inspired in others.
These are gems in the internet. I’ve been surfing youtube for videos of Chuck and Death, luckily we have Mr. Greif for these awesome clips. Thank you so much for these!
@Helvetorment THANKS H! Chuck wasn't just my business associate - he was my buddy. I miss him every day of the year. One super cool thing is that so many folks are still talking about him, listening to his music and keeping his legacy alive. :) ERIC
Respond to this video...WOW! Much respect to you with regards to your comment on the recent video clip of Chuck! You are right and I had never thought of it that way before. Thank you for that perspective my friend........ With Sincere Regards, Beth Schuldiner
I was almost crying today, damn ; ( Chuck Schuldiner i miss you so fucking much man! Damn! fucking cancer! Chuck, you are such an inspiration to me! Thank you for all of your music! Death is my favorite band! i wish i could go to a death concert...too bad i'm 13 ;/
Thanks for clarifying this, Eric. I really appreciate that you have constant contact with us fans of Death and Chuck. It still pisses me off the fact that such a fundamental thing for people as health is something so expensive, I mean, many times it's a matter of life and death. There has been more than one reported case of someone dying because of denied healthcare. Such a fucked up world...
Damn it, Chuck seemed quite like a nice guy to hang with, I wish I just had a chance to meet him but seems like it won't happen...RIP Chuck "Evil" Schuldiner
I read that Chuck was denied surgery when the tumor returned in 2001... I fucking hate the fact that maybe if he hadn't have that surgery denied, he would have survived... Greedy medics, caring more about their paycheck than their patients.
@LichKingSkullWart & AlwaysBeKilling C'mon kids. The reason I made this little vid was to show Chuck as a human being - the same guy I managed and who was my friend. I didn't intend to spark debates pitting brutal folks against those who genuinely miss him. I say that each person should celebrate Chuck's life in their own way. As for what Chuck would want, I'd wager he wouldn't want anyone to be sad but would feel most humbled that his music is still played today. For me this makes him live.
I just researched that a little and it is very rare for an adult to get that type of tumour. Chuck was unique in several ways, unfortunately of course, with cancer.
@TheRagman666 WOW! Much respect to you with regards to your comment on the recent video clip of Chuck! You are right and I had never thought of it that way before. Thank you for that perspective my friend........ With Sincere Regards, Beth Schuldiner
"I'm stoned" - Chuck Schuldiner of Death. October, 1991.
"here is the famous nose that has been mistaken for mountains" - Chuck Schuldiner 1991
Thats why he wrote Crystal Mountain.
"any last words, before we leave this place of evil"
"im stoned"
LONG LIVE THE GLORY OF CHUCK!
LMAO shit is hilarious
He possessed the most metal quality of them all: not caring about what was metal and being his own unique self. RIP Chuck

"any last words?"
"......i'm stoned.."
Laughed so hard.
Love and miss you, chuck. You were and are amazing.
words can not describe how much I love this
words cannot describe how much i love HIM
words cannot describe how much I'm grateful
to find out about him, knowing & learn from him
Same here

@@davef4214 Good to hear man. Try to learn and play Jealously, In Human Form, Spirit Crusher. It'll make your playing style change drastically

If someone would ask me to make a wish, I'd make Chuck resuscitate just to hug him and shake his hand. What a wonderful person he was... RIP Chuck
"Groovy."
I'm almost certain Chuck and I would've gotten along, using outdated slang and the like. God, he seemed like such a great guy.
he seemed like the nicest guy ever
He's beautiful.
the *f a m o u s n o s e*
Wonderfully good looking guy
*Chuck turns around*
BONJOUR!
I was lucky to have a chat with Chuck playing in Denmark .He was a very,very nice and casual kind of person. I will love Death till the end.
Chuck was so cool man...Like He just reminds me of someone I would've went to high school with that you could just sit with for hours and just talk.
i wanna die for the hope of seeing chuck

Eric: "Hey Chuck! Where are we?"
Chuck: "Where in the land of evil!"
Me: "In the land of no return? Or beyond the unholy grave?"
Sorry, that i am so late but maybe youll get baptised in blood!
the unholy grave lies beyond the land of no return
Man, look how humble and nice he is!
RIP Chuck! we missed you!! - we're keeping the metal flow
it's hard to see him not smiling on this video. What a great dude, chuck is the best. I wish he was still alive, imagine how would the next death albums sound like.
2:52 "I love you all"....we love you too, and we miss you Chuck!!
i dropped many tears and laughed during the video, chuck was such a nice guy
Rest in Peace chuck, i love you dude, i really love you !
1967 - 2001
I've never seen such a kind and humble man who plays such brutal music.

Words can't describe how much I love this vid. I wish we had more of this
what an amazing guy he was, funny and extremely talented.
Rip Eric
I can’t believe your gone. Thank you for everything
CHUCK LOVES ME??? MY LIFE IS COMPLEATE!
His smile :)
11 years..RIP
See you one day, Chuck.
"We're in the land of evil"
"Oh no...."

Not to be over dramatic or anything, but I would die for Chuck.
Chuck... thanks for all you have done...You changed my life... You will live forever in my heart. I miss You.
A truly amazing person. Good sense of humor and lives life to the fullest. I really wish I could have met him. \m/

Chuck has a really soft voice
but has a Brutal Death Metal Voice
Real French pastries. Authentic French Pastries. Here! In France! Today!
A true legend!
Bro is so beautiful
Chuck seems like a really chill dude to hang out with. He probably got super deep while high

@PoisonAmbrosia Chuck was saying, in mock English accent: "Hello. What's up?" ERIC
We love you too in Europe, Chuck! Stay immortal forever!
The best thing ever, I watch this like every day
I'm a greedy bastard and I want more.
he seems to have been a nice guy :)

:'( Thank you Chuck!!!
"Anything to say to the fans?
Chuck: I love you all"

I love you Chuck!
@TheGonoreja That's me singing - I heard some stupid shit on the radio and so made up nonsense lyrics. Me & Chuck did that all the time. ERIC
His nose is the extraordinary crystal mountain
I miss the 90s no phone glued to his hands just fun and joking having a good time with who's around you God I miss those days
Legend
dude chuck is badass man
02:51 Love u too man... 🤘🏼😔
R.I.P Chuck ... good times really...
That would be great if the last Control Denied album came with some of this footage on a bonus disc
We miss you Chuck.
R.I.P Chuck :( ♥
Awesome. RIP, Chuck Schuldiner. Much love and respect.

I stood at the same church, that`s badass, love Chuck
Chuck is the best!
Any last words?
Chuck: "I'm stoned."
Chuck rules period. After hearing Spiritual Healing, I was blown away by how fucking hardcore this band and his riffs were. Amazing, and timeless. \m/
