Is CRIMSON the best death metal album ever?

[Dick Sirloin]

Choose wisely.

 

[Ellestin]

close call

 

[J.]

bro, do you even death metal?

 

[einride]

absolutely not

it's a decent 20 minute song with some good riffs and some completely bullshit lyrics, but there is no good reason for it to be 40 minutes long. the latter half is pretty shit.

the best death metal album ever is "the red in the sky is ours"

 

[Reign in Acai]

Too much good death to give such an honor to. Haven't heard that shiet in an eon.

 

[Dick Sirloin]

LOL @ lyrics.

The second half is awesome because it just replays all the best parts from the first half. And it has that shitty a-capella part that rules.

I still think Unorthodox is their best. But I like Spectral Sorrows, PA, and Crimson

 

[Ellestin]

Need to revisit Spectral Sorrows some day. I own Purgatory Aftershave and Crimson and give them one spin every two years at most. They remind me that Swanö was my first serious station on the way to metal and that's that.

The best death metal album is Soulside Journey

Individual Thought Patterns, sorry man. Human comes really fucking close, but.... Andy Larocque

 

[dorian gray]

Death are ok, I suppose.

Lol @ "LOL @ lyrics". I love that!

 

[Dick Sirloin]

Celtic Frost

 

[Agalloch]

Altars of Madness is the correct answer.

 

[CiG]

You're all wrong.

 

[H.P. Lovecraft]

Crimson isn't even in the top fifty, you preening faggot.

 

[Plastic Nathrakh]

Death are ok, I suppose.

You know, I don't see much love for 'Symbolic'. Not really much of a 'Death Metal' album, but it needs more attention than I remember it ever getting. It always stood out to me. Still very thrashy, but so much personality.

Altars of Madness is the correct answer.

My go-to usually.

I'd say one of my favorite death metal albums would have to be 'Indecent & Obscene'. Love that early era mix of thrash, before it all just became blast beats. I feel it kind of got lost in the 'Ever Flowing' hype.

indecent and obscene suffers from probably the weakest mix 'n' master in their catalogue. it's really flat and lifeless.



also from really subpar songs (except "dreaming in red" and "reborn in blasphemy")
