The Everyman
Schuldiner abandoned the idea of a band set-up altogether and began working with session musicians only. In , Death released Human , which is considered a more technical and progressive album than their previous works, incorporating complex rhythms, riffs and song structures.

Due to obligations with his primary band Sadus , Di Giorgio was forced to depart after the recording of Human and new bassist Skott Carino did Death's extensive world tour, from October until March , in addition to appearing in the music video for "Lack of Comprehension". Schuldiner fired his manager Eric Greif after Spiritual Healing but settled and re-hired him before the recording of Human.

Yes, we had a falling out, but we're working together again and it takes a lot of worries off my mind knowing Eric is the man for us", Schuldiner told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. In , Reinert and Masvidal left the group to continue with the band Cynic , as they were working on a full-length album at the time.

Also in , Death abandoned its eight-year relationship with Relativity and signed with Roadrunner Records , their European distributor. For the Symbolic tour Brian Benson was brought in on bass Conlon having left the band prior to the tour. Clendenin was dropped in favor of Steve Di Giorgio, who was once again available, and an underground power metal singer named Tim Aymar. Although the line-up and writing style was largely the same, Schuldiner created Control Denied in large part because he was displeased with the harsher vocals for Death.
However, rather than betray what the band Death meant and sounded like to the fans, he opted to create a new band: I didn't put out a Death record with this stuff on it. I made the right choice and changed the name of the band. I tried to do everything the right way.

The second Control Denied release has yet to be completed and was mired in legal problems involving its Dutch label, the musicians and Schuldiner's sister Beth, the former of whom have publicly stated their desire to complete the album, and former manager Eric Greif representing the Estate. In , Hammerheart Records released a two-part bootleg made up of old, pre- Scream Bloody Gore demos, along with partial demos of the unfinished album and live Death recordings from This was issued under the name Chuck Schuldiner, not Death or Control Denied, but its markedly unfinished state and lack of vocals led to the release not being successful, aided by Schuldiner's mother Jane's pleas for fans to stay away from it.
In October , Greif litigated against Hammerheart, representing Schuldiner's Estate, and all matters were settled by December, theoretically allowing for the Control Denied album to be completed by the other musicians. Members of Death have since stayed active as musicians.
