Aloysius

It was a tough decision - I've been listening to both albums a lot over the past few days. I'd say At The Gates has the more coherent album, but I like the touches of chaotic mania in Heartwork, maybe a remnant of their pathological goregrind past. Also I find Heartwork more interesting throughout - Slaughter of the Soul starts out with some awesome songs but the second half of the album doesn't reach the same heights for me.
