Waking The Cadaver are an American Deathcore band, playing in the vein of Slam Death Metal bands like Devourment. Ironically, the band's rise in popularity had begun with a Misheard Lyrics video sometime back even before they even made their debut. Since then, they moved away from the slam stereotypes and their variety of death metal/deathcore has moved to a more traditional NYDM sound ala bands like Suffocation and Dying Fetus.They formed under the name Death To Honor before the name change in 2006. In that same year, they released their infamous two-track demo that would be the center of said video that would forever change them.For Reasons unexplained, they split up in 2014. Campan is currently part of Hate Diplomacy along with members of Dehumanized, while Hartman is still going strong with his main band Mortal Decay (a longtime NJDM stalwart), Mayo has been devoting his time to the grindcore/powerviolence act Ground, and former guitarist Rob Wharton has been having a decent amount of success with Cognitive. The rest have not done much since then.As of 2018, the band is officially back from the dead. Campan and Mayo have returned, while Tim Carey (Disinhume), Michael Thomas (Ground), and Matt Crismond (Corpse Hoarder) are all new faces.Members: Don Campan — Vocals (2006–14, 2018-present) Mike Mayo — Guitar (2008–14, 2018-present) Michael Thomas — Bass (2018-present) Marco "Lord Marco" Pitruzzella — Drums (2021-present)Albums: Perverse Recollections of a Necromangler (2007) Beyond Cops, Beyond God (2010) Real-Life Death (2013) Authority Through Intimidation (2021)

New Sound Album: Beyond Cops has a more standard Brutal Death Metal sound, with the slams being downplayed in favor of faster riffs.

Ascended Meme: "Shredded Wheat" has become this as of their reunion, as Don has referred to older songs onstage as "old-school shredded wheat shit" (or variations thereof), and at least one of their current shirt designs involves shredded wheat.

Metal Scream: Campan is a mix of Type 1 and Type 2, sporting a mix of gurgling lows and heavily hardcore-inflected bellowing mids.

Misogyny Song: Played straight with the first album (as one might have guessed from such song titles as "Chased Through the Woods by a Rapist"). Averted with Beyond Cops, Beyond God and Real-Life Death, which focused more on deranged sociopathy and "Tough Guy" lyrics.

Start My Own: Rob Wharton (who played on Beyond Cops, Beyond God) did this with Cognitive, while Mike Mayo did the same with Ground. Subverted with Hate Diplomacy, as they had been around since Dimas Mendez was living in Puerto Rico and gained Campan (along with the rest of the lineup) well after they had formed, as Mendez moved to the US in the mid-2010s minus the rest of the original lineup.
