Massacra Final Holocaust- Similar in intent to Slayer's Hell Awaits or the better moments of Reign in Blood, but articulated in the awareness of leaps made by early death metal, carving meaning out of meaningless life through feral violence. Anticipating the 'Stockholm Scene,' in the incorporation of melodic elements within a classically derived narrative compostional structure while retaining the raw, unrestrained and relentless approach characteristic of first wave death metal. While lacking the refined gravitas of later death metal releases, Final Holocaust compensates with visceral passion. The end result is perhaps the finest death metal release of the 80's.
10/10
Morgoth Resurrection Absurd- An EP well ahead of it's time, incorporating melodically articulate solos and the studied weight of doom metal two years before it became fashionable in Sweden. Like the best death metal to come, Resurrection Absurd entrances with an epic sensibility while still retaining the immediacy of pummeling riffs. Quite possibly the finest EP I've ever come across.
