I heavily enjoy all of the 4 "progressive era" death albums, but human has to be my favorite. The cymbal work is so fucking interesting on every single song, definitely one of my favorite drum performances ever.

Retribution

If you're going with Malevolent Creation it has to be Retribution.

For Death flip a coin tales Sound of Perseverance, heads Human. Win win situation really and my 2 favorite Death albums.

Individual Thought Patterns, or Human. Two of the best CDs ever.

I've only heard these two, but I've got to go with Individual Thought Patterns.

Either TSoP or Human for Death, and Retribution or Envenomed for Malevolent Creation.

Human- most brutal progressive release, best drumming in my opinion. sean rinheart and paul from cynic.

ITP- more progrssive and a little less death metal but still pretty brutal and definetly more technical.

symbolic-Lots of awsome grooves and great production, best lyrics and vocal performance in my opinion right ahead of TSOP. Even more progrssive, less standard 8th note death metal riffing and simpler very catchy riffs.

TSOP- Over the top vocals, most progrssive album, very diverse, awesome guitar solos like all death releases, thrashiest drummer yet.

cant go wrong with those four.

oh shit, haha.

everyone knows how the later Death era albums go

Human - the heavy one
Individual Thought Patterns - the technical one
Symbolic - the catchy one
The Sound of Perseverance - the progressive one

Diminishing Between Worlds - the brutal one, haha

Get Spiritual Healing and Human first. Then ITP.

Alternatively, get all of them.

JohnMarkKarrWingtips

02-13-2008, 03:11 PM

Get all of the Death albums, no disappointment, all fucking good.

And Malevolent Creation, all Brett Hoffmann albums. Eternal is cool though.

ITP is the best for sure. my runner up is Leprosy, which needs much more love.

Symbolic. Obviously. Chuck knew that was his masterwork. It was his favorite.

i wouldn't go so far as to say shitty...i think it's a good album but it's my least favorite. some of the moments on it are the best stuff chuck ever did, but there are some riffs and sections that i have a hard time forgiving. the album would have been twice as good if it had been condensed to 45 minutes or so.

At some point in every thread, someone has to come and say how this or that sucks when everyone is praising.

You just can't say that any Death album isn't good.
