Even though this was the debut album by Cannibal Corpse it is nothing short of spectacular. From the disturbing lyrics of the opening track Shredded Humans, to the ending almost instrumental like Buried in the Backyard, its a great album. This album differs from the other in a sense that it has elements of thrash metal as well as Cannibal Corpses signature death metal sounds. Some short but very sweet guitar solo's help bring out the catchy guitar riffs. Even though some will argue that the drums are not that strong, it is the perfect balance of brutal drumming and slower drumming, which all fit the rhythm of the song. Overall one of my favorite albums and anyone who enjoys old school death metal or even thrash metal should give this album a try (not to mention this album is 24 years old).
What's great about it: Catchy riffs, great basslines and drums.
