"barely into their Haday and the almighty Grave are able to deliver powerful pure Death Metal in an assault of 11 great tracks full of what any death metal fan frantically looks for in an act like this. Grave's approach into their brand of DM is very solid and never lets down in any of the songs in this album which to me is considered a gem especially if it includes the 7 other demo tracks on the re-issue. This is one of only a few bands that has a great tone in their instruments which include the low buzzsaw ultra-crunch guitar accompanied with the signature low grunt raspy vocals. Many of the tracks here are extremely memorable and of course they all have great riffs and the thing that completes this masterpiece is the blasting kit that tears through flesh and bone. But, don't take my word for it check it out if you're fan of old school DM"
REAL HEAVY AND UNFORGETTABLE!!!

"I also agree with the other reviewers saying that this is an unforgettable death metal classic.I was totally blown away when I first heard this and still am.All the songs are well structured and heavy as hell.The songs are midtempo and are not that fast,but they rely on sheer force to dull your senses.In my belief,I think this is an overlooked classic which deserves alot more praise than what it's getting here.Go out and get this today because I promise you will not be disappointed.DEATH METAL LIVES ON!!!"
One of the best Classic Deathmetal album

"I bought this album in 1992 (cassette), and i love it till now.
Death metal should sounds like this album, though it is quite like Entombed (not the newer ones, but the old one).
and hey..even Jorgen (ex Grave vocalist) is now in Entombed
but You won't regret it.
If you want to hear an easy but heavy deathmetal music not ultra fast, try this one.
BUY IT BEFORE IT IS OUT OF STOCK!!"
So damn heavy

"If you think youve heard heavy music you havent until youve heard grave. This cd is a dump truck unloading 10,000 pounds of boulders on top of you.Even though the band is swedish they are not like in flames, hypocrisy, edge of sanity, They are more like a Cannibal corpse/Dismember hybrid. Youre not a death metal fan unless you own this"
