最初由Cannibal Corpse樂隊的主唱Chris Barnes和Obituary樂隊的吉他手Allen West組合而成的玩票樂隊Six Feet Under，在Barnes與其原樂隊伙伴關(guān)系鬧僵之后正式成立。前Death樂隊的貝司手Terry Butler和鼓手Greg Gall加入后，Six Feet Under在1995年發(fā)行了他們的首張專輯《Haunted》。而Barnes也停止了與Cannibal Corpse的合作關(guān)系。Six Feet Under在1996年錄制了一張EP《Alive and Dead》，1997年錄制專輯《Warpath》。第三張專輯《Maximum Violence》在1999年出爐。緊接著一年是《Graveyard Classics》，而2001年的《True Carnage》請來了Ice-T加入說唱。2002年，發(fā)行《Double Dead》，2003年發(fā)行《 Bringer of Blood》，2004年發(fā)行《Graveyard Classics, Vol. 2》，2005年發(fā)行《13 and the Decade in the Grave box》，2007年發(fā)行全新大碟《Commandment》。 Originally a side project for Cannibal Corpse vocalist Chris Barnes and former Obituary guitarist Allen West, Six Feet Under eventually became a full-time proposition when friction between Barnes and his other bandmates became too much to bear. Featuring ex-Death bassist Terry Butler and drummer Greg Gall in the rhythm section, Six Feet Under issued their debut album, Haunted, in 1995. Barnes subsequently quit Cannibal Corpse, and Six Feet Under issued the stopgap EP Alive and Dead in 1996 to tide fans over until the following year's full-length, Warpath. Third album Maximum Violence appeared in 1999. Graveyard Classics followed a year later and 2001's True Carnage featured guest vocals from Ice-T. Double Dead arrived in 2002, followed by Bringer of Blood in 2003, Graveyard Classics, Vol. 2 in 2004, 13 and the Decade in the Grave box in 2005, and the all-new Commandment in 2007.
