Best Cannibal Corpse album?

[CiG]

Don't get the love for The Bleeding myself, I don't think I ever could get into that one even when I was almost exclusively blasting CC in my earliest days.

I, in turn, could never understand the 'love' or maybe the 'trend' for loving Tomb of the Mutilated. People often state it's the best of the genre, lol. All because of one song. Honestly, that album is pretty uneven to me. The Bleeding is definitely a more consistent release, but I will have to revisit it for sure. Have we already done the best album thing with Cannibal Corpse?

yeah, i laugh every time i hear someone say Tomb of the Mutilated is one of the best DM albums of all time. Such a pleb opinion. As much as i like the band, none of their releases even come close to deserving that title.

 

[CiG]

Butchered at Birth is much better than both IMO.

Eaten Back to Life > Butchered at Birth

 

[CiG]

I actually agree, surprised you do too. Most people I know seem to basically just dismiss the debut.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

nah man you should know that i love thrashy death metal. And that's them at their thrashiest.

two of my fav CC tracks...

 

[CiG]

Gonna make me have to throw the album on lmao.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

All that being said i still think the thrashing on that album is at a minimum and they were one of the originators of the PURE death metal sound.

Hah, i think i'll throw on Butchered at Birth

tbh I respect anyone saying Tomb is one of the top death metal albums of all time. It's not one of my all time top death metal albums but it was jarringly bloody and blunt in its nastiness, no medical dictionary needed. (and fairly fucking brutal for its time) In that department alone it was never matched until Molesting the Decapitated. If you love death metal splatter factor over lovecraft plagiarisms and satanical nonsense, I at least understand.

It's hard to not have Tomb in my top 10 of all time death metal albums

Have we already done the best album thing with Cannibal Corpse?

Nope. Hoping that's in the next batch.

Lol, i rest my case.

 

[CiG]

Top 10 death metal albums go.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

absolutely nothing from Cannibal Corpse, that's for sure. And that's coming from someone who worships Alex Webster.

 

[CiG]

CUCK! KILL IS AN OBJECTIVE MASTERPIECE!

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

...yea that album does rule.

 

[CiG]

I actually do like that album too.

 

[jimmy101]

Some of their later albums, such of the Wretched Spawn & Kill are amazing DM albums with top-class technicality.

 

[Sirjack]

Alex Webster?
You must be forgetting

Sensational album. Would love to hear another Blotted Science release some day.
