The Old Dead Tree are a progressive death metal band from the city of Paris, France formed in 1997.
Singer Manuel Munoz varies between harsh growls and a melodic tenor voice.
Their first major album release in 2003 was entitled The Nameless Disease and was inspired by and centered around the suicide of the band's first drummer, Frédéric Guillemot.
A new album was tentatively scheduled to be recorded in Fall 2009, but creative differences caused the band to break up before it could be finished.
[2] In 2013, in order to celebrate the 10th anniversary of The Nameless Disease, Manuel, Nicolas, Gilles and Raphael reunited to perform the album in its entirety on a series of live shows, including at Hellfest.
