Yes. The vocals are useless here. I listened to it as if it was an instrumental and there was someone barking in the background. Everything else is great. The drums are br00tal, the solos are intricate and beautiful and the riffs are mind crushing. And also, Lichmistress really sucked.

What should I say and I didn't understand ONE SINGLE WORD from the beginning of the album till it's end?? I must admit that Lord Worm is a really bad vocalist. With all my respect, these are the worst vocals I heard since I got to metal. Well, I know some BDM so I'm not new into this style. I've heard Dying Fetus's Destroy The Opposition and I think the vocals there are much better than here. The music, however, is on the same level. Concerning Lord Worm: If you want to hear some good MEANINGFUL growling vocals then check out Amon Amarth's Johan Hegg or Opeth's Mikael Akerfeldt. Man, even Chris Barnes on TOTM is WAY better than this Worm dude!

Well that's your opinion, Am not a Lord Worm fan but i respect him, and love many of his vocal parts, even though i hate some parts, but IMO he is btter than the dude from AA, and better than Chris Barnes.

He is just terrible. sounds like a constipated bear. No offense if he reads this.

Lord Worm is fucking great. My favorite part of Cryptopsy. You notice that all of their best albums have him on it?

Naw. he's turrible ( thats one step up from terrible)

While he's not my favorite part (especially on this album, as the instrumentation is otherworldly), he's got a unique brutal death metal voice. This is how BDM growling is supposed to be done.

It'd be an 8 if there were no vocals, the guy is just awful.

Lord Worm is a legend. He epitomises the concept that vocals in a band like this should become part of the sound itself, rather than conveying pointless lyrics.

You mean too much for you to handle. It's ok, it doesn't make you any less of a man (except it does)

Garbage, vocals mean alot to me in bands the tie the song together, you feel the power of a song in the vocals, lord worms just make me want to

I more or less agree with the other two. Lord Worm isn't too great at all. IMO, the most overrated vocalist in death metal together with Chuck Schuldiner

Funny you mention Chuck, easily my least favourite vocalist of all time, horrible shrill vocals.

As for Lord Worm, well I guess you aren't much of a man either Marcel ;]

Although I really like Lord Worm, but you definitely did the right thing in here.

Chuck Schuldiner

i think that schuldiners vocals till ITP were great...

This album is starting to grow on me...

The only time the vocals annoyed me was on the first track, otherwise they were typical growls to me. Cliched above all else, but the rest makes up for it quite nicely.

I just didn't find anything that enjoyable or different on this album. Horrible vocals mixed in with some Brutal Death. :/ Unless i'm missing something BIG here of course.

Just listen to it again, and don't listen closely. Use it as almost background noise. It'll start to grow on you.

Honestly I wouldn't listen to Boxcar's advice... If you think you need to listen to this again, listen to it seriously, not as background music. The jazz influence and complex riffing is some of the best in all of bdm, and even though LW is a love or hate vocalist, this album is pretty much exactly what brutal death should sound like.

If you don't like it, you don't like it - no big deal. But if you don't like brutal death metal at all then it's not a surprise if you can't get into this, being that it's one of the genre's pioneering albums (along with Suffocation and Dying Fetus).
