Our Take

Prepare your eardrums, dear readers, for we are about to embark on a journey to the depths of musical madness with Morbid Angel's "Altars of Madness." This iconic album, released in 1989, is a brutal assault on the senses that will leave you reeling in disbelief.

From the very first track, "Immortal Rites," it is abundantly clear that Morbid Angel is not here to hold your hand and guide you gently through a melodic landscape. No, they are here to grab you by the throat and drag you kicking and screaming into a dark, twisted world of death metal mastery.

Throughout the album, guitarists Trey Azagthoth and Richard Brunelle unleash a barrage of savage riffs and blistering solos that will leave even the most hardened metalheads clamouring for more. David Vincent's guttural vocals add an extra layer of brutality to the mix, ensuring that every lyric hits you like a sledgehammer to the face.

Standout tracks such as "Maze of Torment" and "Chapel of Ghouls" showcase Morbid Angel's unparalleled ability to craft intricate, technically proficient music that still packs a visceral punch. And let's not forget Pete Sandoval's blistering drum work, which propels the album forward with relentless intensity.

In conclusion, "Altars of Madness" is a sonic masterpiece that deserves a place in every metalhead's collection. Whether you're a seasoned veteran of the genre or a newcomer looking to dip your toes into the dark waters of death metal, this album will leave you breathless and begging for more. Trust me, you won't regret it.

About the artist

Morbid Angel

Ah, Morbid Angel. The pioneering death metal band that has been shredding minds and melting faces since the late 80s. With a name like that, you know you're in for some serious satanic riffage. Formed in 1983 in Florida, Morbid Angel quickly made a name for themselves with their brutal sound, dark lyrics, and intense live performances. They were one of the first bands to incorporate elements of thrash and black metal into their music, creating a truly unique and terrifying sound. Led by founding member Trey Azagthoth, Morbid Angel have released nine studio albums over the years, with each one cementing their place as one of the most influential and important bands in the death metal genre. From classics like "Altars of Madness" to more recent releases like "Kingdoms Disdained," Morbid Angel have never shied away from pushing the boundaries of what is possible in extreme metal. But it's not just their music that sets Morbid Angel apart. Their stage presence is legendary, with Azagthoth's wild guitar solos and vocalist Steve Tucker's menacing growls captivating audiences around the world. And let's not forget about their iconic album covers, featuring grotesque and macabre artwork that perfectly complements their brutal sound. In a genre that is constantly evolving and pushing the limits of extremity, Morbid Angel have managed to stay true to their roots while still finding ways to innovate and surprise their fans. Whether you're a die-hard death metal fanatic or just someone who appreciates good music, Morbid Angel is a band that demands your attention. So grab your leather jacket, throw up the horns, and prepare to be blown away.
