This album is proof that death metal dosen't have to be uber-technical to kick ass. This isn't as fast or fluid as say , Morbid Angel, Death, Anata, Arsis, or Theory In Practice, but it holds up well with any classic of the genre in terms of brutal intensity. This is also one of the most influencial albums to ever be released. Don't take my word for it, check out anything from Dismember, Edge Of Sanity, Carcass, At The Gates, Seance, The Haunted and you'll see what I mean. Almost all European extreme bands (especially ones from Sweden) have added some element of this album to their own works.
Album Lineup:
Lars-Göran Petrov - vocals
Uffe Cederlund - guitars / bass
Alex Hellid - guitars
Nicke Andersson - drums / bass
Some of the tracks featured on this album were written while the band went
under the name of Nihilist.
CD versions of the album feature the bonus tracks "Carnal Leftovers" (2:59),
sometimes erroneously referred to as "Carnival Leftovers", and "Premature
Autopsy" (4:26). The Japanese version also adds the Crawl EP.
