Kelly Conlon
Kelly Conlon (Born March 1969) is an American bass guitarist. He has been a hired member of Death and Monstrosity.
[edit] Career
Conlon was part of the Florida underground metal scene until 1994 when Orlando-based Chuck Schuldiner hired him to play with the international death metal band Death. He recorded the album Symbolic and went on the subsequent international "Full of Hate Festivals" tour, until Schuldiner terminated his services afterwards, as Conlon "didn't fit the Death mold".[1] As to Conlon's firing, Schuldiner stated "unfortunate" reasons for needing to replace him with Brian Benson prior to the North American Death tour in support of Symbolic.[2]
Conlon joined Monstrosity,[3] another Florida death metal band, in 1996 and played on the albums Millennium (1997) and In Dark Purity (1999).
It was announced in August 2011 at Blabbermouth.net that Conlon was recruited to join "Arizona-based death/thrash metallers Sargon".[4]
