I just picked up the Best of compilation from Roadrunner at lunch. So far so good. What records would you guys recommend for a person rediscovering the band? I had heard the band before, just never picked up any of their records.
Deicide records?

Ohhhhh, nice one! Deicide, Legion, and Once Upon The Cross are excellent! Serpents Of The Light is pretty good too but then they started to get boring.

agreed, s/t, legion are good and also id have to say when satan lives, i just got a thing for live cds.
Ewww. Deicide *shudders*. Their earlier work is better than their later work but I still think they were the worst out of the Florida death metal scene. Obituary is so much better.
You might be right. Obit was the better band of the two. I just wanna check out their earlier works.MURAI said:

Obituary was an awesome band but I thought they hit their stride with World Demise. I can't get enough of that album.
Obituary is the very definition of aggression. Tardy sounded so inhuman on their earlier albums.. "GRRRRROAAAAAAAHHHHH"!!!

As everything's been said before this is probably redundant. Still I'd like to recommend their debut or its successor Legion. I already found Once Upon The Cross pretty boring (except for the title track) and totally lost interest in the band afterwards. But I have to admit that I've never been the biggest Deicide fan at all. They're just nice fillers in my collection. And yes, there are by far better bands out of the Floridian scene. Don't go for Deicide before you've checked out Death, Obituary, Morbid Angel and Malevolent Creation!
...Oh, maybe I can provide at least a tiny little bit of new information. You might find Deicide's Amon: Feasting The Beast-CD interesting. It consists of their two demos. You can forget about the first one dating from 1987 as it is rather crappy. But the second one, containing 6 tracks which would later appear on their debut, is a nice alternative to the Deicide-album. In my humble opinion the demo's production is much thicker than the one on the actual LP.
