"After over 15 years since I last heard their music, I decided to pick up this CD. It is the ultimate in true death metal. I don't even listen to this type of music any more, but I listen to this CD. For anyone new to the genre; don't start here... you will be dissapointed in anything else you listen to in the genre from here on out."
Legendary!

"Obituary maybe my second favorite extreme death metal band! Only the even more legendary Death would come ahead. Obituary had to be highly influnced by Slayer mainly due to the guitar solos. Vocalist John Tardy sounds a bit like Chuck Schuldner(RIP) of Death. After all the two bands originated around the same time at the same place! This is one of the most brutal bands to be signed on to the great Roaadrunner Records second most brutal on that label. The most brutal band on that label is probably Suffocation(another awesome band). This is Obituary's debut and their best album as well. I'm glad they reunited for a new album in 2005! The vocals are great! The guitars are killer! The drums sound excellent! The bass is audible! This album is a death metal classic all the way.
WARNING: If you think Limp Bizkit and Linkin Park are heavy than avoid this album at all costs! And if you're one of those people than you suck!"
