BeastOfMetal456 Account deleted	30.08.2011 - 16:37 BeastOfMetal456 Account deleted Great album. A Death Metal gem. Crushing guitar riffs, uncommon vocals in death metal, mouthwatering solos and some sick lyrics. What do you want more? Loading...

I plan to listen to 'Slowly we rot' in a more focussed manner as well. It's weird that I only managed to stat listening to this band 3 months ago... Loading...

As for the album it's ok but like all Obituary those vocals get tired really quickly. Though this is probably my favourite Obituary album. Leaving the sarcasm, John Tardy is one of my favorite death metal vocalists of all time. His voice is so evil and full of violence (especially on Slowly We Rot) the first time it was like a punch in the face. I still enjoy it. ---- I'm derp. Loading...

Some people just like plodding death metal I guess. Plodding is a good way to describe this. They seem to have a (inordinately?) huge fan-base, at least based on the amount of shirts that I see around festivals, mostly with this album as the design. ---- Most Talented Vocalists In Metal Tasty Stuff Not Currently Featured On MS So I Heard You Like Opeth...

Lit. Account deleted	04.07.2014 - 19:19 Lit. Account deleted This (and Slowly We Rot) is actually one of the few early death metal releases I prefer. Way better than the likes of early stuff by Autopsy, Asphyx, Deicide, etc. Loading...
Dr. Strawberry Posts: 694	24.02.2015 - 08:31 Dr. Strawberry Posts: 694 Obituary are definitely not much similar to other death metal bands and they have their own trademark and completely different sound....Actually this album is PUNKY. I don't call this pure Death Metal. Loading...
