    This book blew me away -- it's like having a front row seat to the formation of death metal! The retrospectives by Autopsy and Incantation were the best, but there's about 30 of them, all written by the bands themselves.

    Hence, 1984 being the starting year for the book.

    ....

    BTW, it's pretty clear that you had no idea that death metal existed that early.
