Conlon was part of the
Florida underground metal scene until 1994 when
Orlando-based
Chuck Schuldiner hired him to play with the American
death metal band
Death. He recorded the album
Symbolic and went on the subsequent European "Full of Hate Festivals" tour, though he was replaced by Brian Benson, who played the North American tour. According to Schuldiner, he,
Gene Hoglan and
Bobby Koelble collectively decided to kick Conlon out. Conlon joined
Monstrosity, another Florida death metal band, in 1995 and played on the albums
Millennium (1996) and
In Dark Purity (1999). Conlon also played bass in extreme metal band Pessimist. It was announced in August 2011 at
Blabbermouth.net that Conlon was recruited to join "Arizona-based death/thrash metallers Sargon", which went on an undefined hiatus. Conlon played on Azure Emote's "The Gravity Of Impermanence" in 2013. Conlon joined
Agent Steel in July 2023. He had been replaced by founding member George Robb by December 2024. ==References==
