http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.42939&rws=%2Fmorbid-angel%2Fdiscography.rssMorbid Angel represent just about everything a Death Metal fan could ask for, and everything a skeptic of the genre could think of to ridicule. Blinding tempos, ultraheavy riffs, beastly vocals, psychotic guitar solos and blasphemous lyrics about flesh and "sinful desires" -- these Floridian freaks have been dishing it all out in glorious excess since the mid-1980s. Their sincerity has often bordered on self-parody, and sometimes it just plain crosses the line, with David Vincent's inimitable, phlegm-covered grunts ("Whuuuuuhhh") as just one example. All chuckles aside, they back up the evil posturing as few others can: not only are they incredibly fast, technical musicians, but their songs are elaborate and well-constructed, making smart use of time and tempo changes as well as recurring themes and riffs. They also sound pretty, well, evil. Their early albums (<I>Altars of Madness</I>, <i>Blessed Are the Sick</I>, <I>Covenant</I>) remain classics of the genre and are still probably the best places to start, though they haven't exactly sloughed off in recent years. - Will YorkDeath Metalen720Thu, 31 Dec 2009 11:23:24 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.42939&rws=%2Fmorbid-angel%2Fdiscography.rss Morbid Angel represent just about everything a Death Metal fan could ask for, and everything a skeptic of the genre could think of to ridicule.
