i think its weird though that very little attention goes to their later albums....don't get me wrong both the early EPs (more so with Farce) and Death Church are amazing but in my opinion Cacophony is their opus and the later EPs....Echos Of Anguish, The Ubdercalss and as Fred mentioned No More Pain and a bit slower but much more brooding than the earlier stuff

i also think its amazing that with two lyric writers who both have very different agendas seem to blend so perfectly that at times it's impossible to tell who wrote what and from what perspective

also Mondo if you have not already i strongly suggest you pick up Nick Blinko's book The Silent Screamer....a sort of HP Lovecraftian horror fantasy/auto biography told from the point of view of the main characters psychologist
