Cool album, but more brutal doesn't mean better. From Terminal Spirit Disease to Slaughter of the Soul was definitely their best period. If I ever kill myself I'm gonna have Scarlett Johansson show up to my house with a vinyl copy of Slaughter of the Soul and have her DJ that ****.

I just enjoy a good bit of suicide humor. I fear death and oblivion far too much to ever see suicide as any kind of alternative to this shitty life.

First ATG full length just has something that lacked later releases. SotS is a good album, but very overrated as well. Along with Carcass and their "Heartwork" album.

I'm not really into melodeath that much. I guess it's cause Carcass and At the Gates were legitimate death metal bands before they went melodic, so their music was actually melodic death metal than whatever the hell all the other bands were doing.

the album is bland and over-produced generic melo-death. It is good if you want accessible melo-death i suppose. But really I think it is vastly overrated.

p.s. This album pisses all over anything ATG has ever done:
as does its sequel: This one has one of the best guitar tones I have ever heard as well.
