What can I say about this album. Well, to start this is from the era when Morbid Angel were one of the gods of death metal and pretty much lead the entire genre with each release. This album is from that era and as such, is a pretty much required ownership. The music production is distinct of that time in music, so plenty of space for the music to fully come out with no over the top compression. All the musicians are on top form, each part sounds like a master is playing on his instrument. I would point out some stand out tracks, but they are all pretty much awesome, but if I had to pick it would be Where the Slime Live, which is a pounding almost groove affair that has the guitars practically hitting nothing but “the prefect set of notes”. One thing I would say is if your not used to music from that time in music, you may notice the album is in fact a little quieter than todays albums. Its not a problem at all, just a by product of the techniques from that place in music.
Advantages: Guitars, sound , technique Disadvantages: i think nothing...

4. Trapped in torment 4.01 Brilliant, I absolutely love this song, I usually replay this song after listening as around 1.30 into the song it sounds very reminiscent of morbidangel from covenant and dominate albums. I love the time and tempo changes in this song, again I think it is a true testament to a band that they can produce so much, non repetitive music in just one song, i.e. they rarely repeat any 4 bars, it is constantly changing, even subtely, flawless!
5. Indisposable deaths 4.27, a very cool intro, throughout the song, a solid performance, some great technical drumming, catchy riffing and even what some 'hard core' folk would almost call a 'breakdown'. This song has elements of black metal, death metal, brutality and very...
