"Dead by Dawn" was featured in the 2009 video game Grand Theft Auto IV: The Lost and Damned on the radio station Liberty City Hardcore. It is sometimes considered to be the bestselling death metal album of all time.Puzak, Chris. Nielsen Soundscan lists it second after Morbid Angel's Covenant, however Deicide was released before SoundScan went into effect so the SoundScan figure lacks pre-Soundscan sales. The album was important to the progression of death metal, due to its then-unmatched brutality and the vocal stylings of vocalist/bassist Glen Benton. His deep, guttural growl was enhanced and manipulated with studio production to make the vocals as harsh as possible. The album was recorded at Morrisound Studios in Tampa, Florida, where Deicide would record most of their subsequent works.
