Pestilence: Consuming Impulse - This is one of the
best death metal albums of the late 80's. Before the
band released this album, they had another album out
called Mellus Maleficarum, which was more brutal, thrash
metal. When the band finally released this album, the
band retained its brutal thrash style but it was taken
to another level. In other words, it became more
brutal death metal. This is the case where someone
listens to this album. Every song is brutal and heavy
but yet, amazing. There's plenty of speed, mid-paced
and slow stuff as well as a combo of 2 or all 3. There
are also solos, melodies, blast beats, double bass and
death metal vocals. So this is basically a total
package
of heavy, brutal, amazing, late-80's/early 90's death
metal.
Choice Cuts: Dehydrated, Out Of The Body, Echoes Of
Death, Defy The Master, Proliferous Souls and Reduced
To Ashes
This album as a regular album is right now out
of print but all it not lost. Right now, Roadrunner
Records has re-issued the album as part of a 2 in
one package long with other classic albums and some as
just regular albums. They are all in stores now.
Here's a list of some of the re-issues just in case
anyone wants to check some of these important metal
gems.
Pestilence: Consuming Impulse/Testimony Of The
Ancients
Gorguts: Considered Dead/The Erosion Of Sanity
Exhorder: Slaughter In The Vatican/The Law
Annihilator: Alice In Hell/Never Neverland
Annihilator: Set The World On Fire/Live In Command
Diabolic: Subterreanial Magnitude - This album is
one of the best death metal albums ever released. The
best way to describe it is evil, scary, satanic,
relentless, chaotic, devastating, apocalyptic, heavy,
brutal, blackened death metal officially approved by
the imperial majesties of the underworld. This is not
some silly statement but it is a complete stone cold
reality and you will agree when you listen to it. The
band has other albums to their name but this one is
the most crushing of them all. This is because of the
sound and the production of the album as well as the
musicianship of the songs. They are a mix of death
metal along with some black metal elements. This is
what gives the songs that evil feeling but everything
is all crushing. So get this album and prepare for the
attack.
Choice Cuts: Extinction Level Event, Deadly Deception,
Fleshcraft, Diabolical Perception, Necromancer Of The
Ancient Arts and Subterreanial Magnitude.
