Jack Owen is an American guitarist, best known for his work in the death metal genre. He was one of the founding members of Cannibal Corpse. He stayed with the band from their formation in 1988 until 2004 when he left because he wanted to move on as stated in the Centuries of Torment DVD. Later that year though, he was hired by Deicide—another influential and long-running Florida death metal band—with whom he recorded three albums.
As of November 2007, Owen has been playing shows in support of Adrift's full-length album, "Absolution," which Adrift is shopping to interested record labels, and which Owen has said "is the record I am most proud of." Owen also takes duty as the lead guitarist for Order of Ennead when their guitarist, John Li, is unavailable. In 2009 Owen recorded lead guitar tracks for Tampa's infamous white power "combat metal" band Attack on their album "Fade Away".
