Best DM release of 91

[byrne]

I also would have voted AtG - Gardens of Grief.

I voted Unleashed - Where No Life Dwells. Also, agree Tiamat should have been there. Great year though.

 

[Krow]

Effigy of the mother fucking Forgotten.

 

[Burnout]

In some semblance of an order:

Unquestionable Presence
Like an Everflowing Stream
Mental Funeral
Necroticism
The Rack
Effigy of the Forgotten
Dawn Of Possession
Clandestine

 

[no country for old wainds]

Mental Funeral

The lack of love for Dawn of Possession is unsettling.

dawn of possession is one of those that most people really like but nobody would put right up among their favourites.

I'd agree with this.

 

[Cesaro]

voted effigy

 

[Lateralus14]

Ya I can't vote, it's too hard. Would be between Necroticism, Blessed Are the Sick, Effigy of the Forgotten, and Unquestionable Presence though, with Human, Soulside Journey, and Mental Funeral right after that.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

I've heard no more than a third of these, but Unquestionable Presence.

 

[General Zaroff]

Human
Effigy
Into The Grave

 

[Mentok]

Wow, voted for Unquestionable Presence although The Rack, Effigy, and Human were right there with it.

 

[Blind Guardian]

for the record i probably like gardens of grief more than any of these.

Great release, but I didn't include it since it's an ep. I regret that I didn't swap Of Darkness with From Beyond though, which is a real killer, but I thought that was from 1990.

Wow Human is winning, wouldn't have thought that.

 

[Lifewithoutpain]

I had to go with Carcass again. They were just so influential in my late teens. Death and Morbid Angel follow close behind in that year.

 

[Krow]

Kinda surprised Soulside Journey has so many votes... I've listened to it again and again... and it's never done anything for me at all... especially compared to the other stuff on this list.

 

[cannibal corpse]

Mental Funeral definitely. Effigy of the Forgotten and Unquestionable Presence come really close though.

 

[Dak]

Darkthrone hasn't done anything for me period.

 

[Vinnolation]

Blessed Are The Sick
Human
Soulside Journey
Dawn Of Possession
Effigy Of The Forgotten

I went with Death, but Morbid Angel is pretty much a tie. Darkthrone, Suffocation and Immolation all supreme greats here, too!

[IntoPhagist]

Good choices, but Human is THE Death Metal album.

 

[cookiecutter]

Effigy of the Forgotten is by far my favorite album on that list and one of my favorites of all time.

 

[Dak]

Good choices, but Human is THE Death Metal album.

I think you are looking for the "controversial opinions on metal" thread.

 

[Ross]

LAEFS deserves more love.
