In an interview with ''The AU Interview'', he said the bands that influenced him into starting a band were "Korn, Deftones, Slayer, Sepultura and anything my dad brought home."<ref name= The AU Review>{{cite web|url=http://www.theaureview.com/interviews/the-au-interview-mitch-lucker-of-suicide-silence-usa|title=the AU interview: Mitch Lucker of Suicide Silence (USA) | the AU ...|date=20 November 2010|publisher=The AU Review|accessdate=20 November 2010}}</ref> He first started performing in his brother's garage band, covering a Hatebreed song he knew the lyrics to when they needed a vocalist. |
|||
==Tattoos== |
|||
Mitch had a love for tattoos, working in a tattoo shop as a piercer at one point in his life before [[Suicide Silence]] became as big as they have to this day. His first tattoo he got done was his shin, when he was 17. Since then, he had gone on to getting most of his body inked throughout the years, including getting an owl on his stomach, his daughter's name tattooed on his hand in a flower and his wife's name on his neck. <ref>http://inkandhonor.com/interviews/musicians/mitch-lucker</ref> |
|||
==Music Career== |
|||
Lucker first joined the band [[Suicide Silence]] in 2002, touring with the likes of [[Parkway Drive]], [[Darkest Hour]] and [[The Acacia Strain]].

It became one of the biggest selling Century Media releases with 7,250 copies being sold within the first week of release. The music video for "The Price Of Beauty" was banned from the MTV playlist for being deemed too "visually and lyrically explicit.<ref name=[[MetalSucks]]>{{cite web|url=http://www.metalsucks.net/2007/10/30/cinemetal-suicide-silence-the-price-of-beauty/|title=CINEMETAL: SUICIDE SILENCE, “THE PRICE OF BEAUTY”|last=Rosenburg|first=Axl|date=30 October 2007|publisher=MetalSucks.net|accessdate=30 October 2007}}</ref> And again, two years after the release of their debut album, "'''No Time To Bleed'''"<ref name= No Time To Bleed>{{cite web|url=http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/No_Time_To_Bleed|title=No Time To Bleed|publisher=[[Wikipedia]]}}</ref> was released in 2009 in five different editions; the standard version, the Exclusive [[Hot Topic]] Edition, the [[iTunes]] edition, the [[vinyl]] edition, and the ''Maximum Bloodshed Edition''.

The final album before Mitch's death was released in July 2011, entitled "'''The Black Crown'''"<ref name= The Black Crown>{{cite web|url=http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/The_Black_Crown|title=The Black Crown|publisher=[[Wikipedia]]}}</ref>. By this time, his lyrical inspirations changed, unlike what he had wrote previously in the other albums, there were to be no controversial "anti-religious" lyrics. When asked by ''Kerrang!'' Lucker explained: "I'm not trying to put people's beliefs down - it's about me and my life. This is my head cracked open and poured on the paper! I still have the same beliefs and same views, but I'm more open to everything," he adds. "At this point in my life, I don't see the good in making people hate you for something you say. This record is for everybody."<ref name=[[Kerrang!]]>{{cite web|url=http://www.kerrang.com/blog/2011/04/suicide_silence_get_personal_o.html|title= Suicide Silence gets Personal on The Black Crown|first=Simon|date=5 April 2011|publisher=[[Kerrang]]|accessdate=5 April 2011}}</ref> |

{{quote|"He was an alcoholic, and has been a long battle. I tried to stop that evening, I put in front of him on the doorstep, begging him not to leave. I begged him: Seriously, do it for us, do not go. But he's gone and that's what happened. Should be a wake up call for everyone. He was a wonderful man, a wonderful father and a great husband. But now it will grow Kenadee, our five year old daughter. All this because he decided to drink and drive. Do not do it. Think before you do something so stupid. Learn from this story. <ref>http://www.blabbermouth.net/news.aspx?mode=Article&newsitemID=181724</ref>." |
