biography

In 1986 Vincent came into contact with Morbid Angel and was originally supposed to release their planned debut album Abominations of Desolation on his own label Embryonic Goreque Records. This was recorded, but not initially published. At Vincent's suggestion, guitarists Trey Azagthoth and Richard Brunelle moved in with him and took him and drummer Wayne Hartzel into the band. In addition to Morbid Angel, Vincent also played bass on the album World Downfall by the grindcore band Terrorizer , which had already been dissolved at the time of publication.

In 1995 Vincent came under fire for making xenophobic and right-wing extremist statements in several interviews . He was also assigned contacts to major American neo-Nazis . He also gave Lemmy Kilmister from Motörhead a book with Nazi propaganda on a tour . On the Domination album was a song called Where the Slime Live , which could be interpreted as xenophobic. In addition, the situation escalated with Trey Azagthoth, the actual mastermind of the band. He angered this with his statements in interviews that earned Morbid Angel the reputation of being a fascist band and conflicts over their different musical ideas. Vincent then left Morbid Angel to join his wife's industrial metal band Genitorturers. David's first contribution was the lyrics to House of Shame from the debut album 120 Days of Genitorture . From 2004 to 2015 he played again with Morbid Angel.

He owns his own custom-made Dean Guitars bass called the "Demonator".

Vincent worked with the thrash and nu-metal band Soulfly in 2008 . He is on the album Conquer as lead singer and lyricist on the opening song Blood Fire War Hate .

Since 2015 he has been the singer of the band Vltimas, which released their debut album Something Wicked Marches In in 2019 . From 2017 to 2019 Vincent replaced the late Lemmy Kilmister at Headcat 13 .
