    Wall of death meaning & definition 1 of Wall of death.


  • Form of [mosh]ing most well known through Lamb of Gods Black Label. At a concert the lead vocalist of a metal band instructs the crowd that they are doing the wall of death. The crowd then divides in half...each half made up of aggresive fans ready to tear eachother apart. When the considerably heavier or heaviest part of the song kicks in, the two halves of the crowd rush one another. As you might imagine, two walls of aggressive people colliding results in serious injury and sometimes death. For this reason, many bands have been sued for calling the wall of death, so modern walls of death are formed not due to instruction, but through serious fans who know what to do when the song in question is played. This is a mosh meant to be done a metal shows...not a hardcore dance. A wall of death at an emo/hXc show is not a true wall of death.

    Wall of death meaning & definition 2 of Wall of death.


  • Contrary to what the other definitions state, the term Wall of death originated in the [hardcore] [punk] community of the early 80s. It was a natural outgrowth of the mosh pit, when people wanted to break into the pit they would form a line and literally rush the pit, becoming part of it.
    It became extremely popular, as did [slam dancing] and other forms of punk dancing, in the mainstream a few years after it started. This is true for most things punk and true metal did.
    One of the clearest examples of this was performed by a [crust punk] band with a cult following for the late 90s and early 2000s called R.A.M.B.O. where they would encourage the crowd to dress up as either protestors or cops and stage a mock riot. The two sides would form up and then wall o death! each other.
    So, sorry children, Lamb of God did not originate this.
