Biography

Suffocation, the influential death metal band from New York, rose to prominence in the 1990s with albums like Effigy of the Forgotten and Breeding of the Spawn. Despite a brief split in 1995, they regrouped and released successful albums such as Souls to Deny and Blood Oath, marking their first entry on the American charts. With the retirement of frontman Frank Mullen in 2019, Ricky Myers took over for the band's ninth studio album, Hymns from the Apocrypha, released in 2023.

Suffocation's journey includes lineup changes, label issues, and critical acclaim, demonstrated by albums like Pierced from Within and Despise the Sun. The band's resilience and dedication to their craft led to chart success with albums like Pinnacle of Bedlam and ...Of the Dark Light, which found favor in European markets. Their live album, recorded in 2018 and released in 2021, captures a pivotal moment in the band's history as Mullen bid farewell, passing the vocal reins to Myers for the next chapter in Suffocation's legacy.

Artist Affinity estimates how strongly an artist's audience overlaps with interest in specific brands, products, and categories. It is derived from aggregated social and behavioral signals—who fans follow, save, click, and engage with—normalized across platforms. Higher affinity suggests better partnership fit and higher likelihood that fans will respond positively to branded content or offers. Use it to shortlist natural brand partners and product concepts that feel authentic to the audience. Combine affinity with Connection Strength (ER) and reach to balance fit with impact. Treat affinity as directional—validate with creative tests and small pilots before scaling.

ER = (likes + comments + shares) ÷ audience per post ≥ 3.0% = Very Strong 2.0–2.99% = Strong 1.0–1.99% = Moderate < 1.0% = Low

How to read it: Pair ER with reach (views/followers) to gauge intensity and scale.
