... over the bloody amazing album that Death - Human is.
Seriously, I'm not that big a fan of Death. Most of their albums bore me.
But this... This is a masterwork. It might very well be the perfect death metal album in existance. At least for me. It has amazing guitar playing which I as from today am struggling to learn, it has funky basslines for those inclined to properly listen, the drumming is mindblowingly fast, accurate and original (intro to Flattening of Emotions, oh my gods)... The music is evil, heavy, jazzy and groovy at the same time, and the leads soar in the sky while the rhythm is as down to earth as can be.
I am shocked and appalled that Death didn't produce any more truly awesome albums, but then again, nothing can beat this in terms of death metal musicianship.
