Also, I was throwing on the tracks as you were mentioning them cause I hadn't heard a bunch of this stuff in years.

    Rob, every single album on your list is identical to mine man. Morbid angel domination is got to be one of my all time favorite albums EVER bro. Number one to be exact. Cannibal corpse the bleeding, deicide once upon a cross, malevolent creation retribution, six feet under haunted, resurrection embalmed existence, atrocity hallucinations, pestilence testimony of the ancients, death human, but i have GOT to put impossibility of reason and the infection on my list bro.. implements of destruction, salvation and the venom inside are hands down some of the best songs ever written imo. Such a cool and fun video man. I love what you do and i will always be a supporter.. keep killin it Rob. 🤘🤘

    Love the context given to this list. Lot of folks review music in a 40 year vacuum. It’s not possible. You have to get the context behind it, how different and influential the music was at the time. Great list, can’t go wrong - my all time #1 is Suffocation - Pierced from Within - when that dropped in ‘95 it was some of the most complex and brutal stuff I’d ever heard.

Cannibal Corpse, Atheist and Gorguts at the Agora Ball room. Sepultura in the Agora theater, also Grave and Acid Bath. What a great era..

      @RobArnoldWorld I showed my son your reply, and he tripped out, and said, "Power Trip" is one of the greatest songs of all time, and asked if you guys can ever make it back to Houston, TX.
      I told him about the first time that I got to see you guys with Machine Head on the Road Rage tour with Trivium opening, back in August of 2004. One of the best shows I have ever seen.
      My introduction to Opeth was the Blackwater Park and then Deliverance/Damnation albums, which are also some of my all time favorites. I went back and heard My Arms, Your Hearse some time later and a cool little feature of MAYH is in the way the songs segue into one another and the final word of each song is the title of the following song. A simplistic idea, but pretty fucking rad.

    Great picks, it's like you are in my brain for the time period. I'd also throw in
    Death - Symbolic
    Carcass - Necroticism
    Napalm Death - Harmony Corruption
    Also Undead is probably the only SFU record that I loved front to back and I didn't even know for a long time that you were the songwriter on it. Being a huge Chimaira fan it made sense why I loved it. Your writing kicks ass! PS the world needs Chimaira!

    The Bleeding truly is a magnificent death metal record. So catchy yet with pristine production. Everyone praises Tomb of the Mutilated (for good reason) but I agree, The Bleeding really blew me away. Butchered was my first exposure to C Corpse but The Bleeding made me a lifelong fan!

    We're very close in age. I'm 46 and Deicide, Morbid Angel, Cannibal Corpse, Obituary, and Entombed were my gateway into death metal. At the time, in 94 you had to read about it in mags like RIP and Keerang and Metal Maniacs. Or take a trip to Tower Records. Do you remember when Headbanger's Ball with Rikki Rachtman would come on? They had a segment called the Triple Thrash Threat and if you were just lucky instead of playing thrash it would be Morbid Angel or Unleashed or Entombed. I miss those days a whole lot brother.

    • @RobArnoldWorld

      @PhilippSchmale 9 місяців тому

      Yes man. I always recorded the Triple Thrash Threat on VHS and watched the Videos basically on repeat. Good times!!! I´m 42 and got really early into Metal, because of my big brother. I was the only one in the 4th-grade, only 11 years old, running around with Band-Merch. And I quickly evolved from Metallica over Pantera to Sepultura and Death Metal. I still love alle these albums from the 90's. I had a Cannibal Corpse Tomb of the mutilated longsleeve and my parents said I'm not allowed to wear this. So I had the longsleeve always under a Hoodie when I was leaving for school and then got rid of the Hoodie before arriving at school. The teachers were schocked.

    These are the death metal albums that had the most impact on my life back then. My favorite concert: Napalm Death with Carcass in San Diego. ND had just released Utopia Banished and Carcass Necroticism. Amazing show, the vibe was incredible, people went nuts. I don't know why, but San Diego had concerts landing in Friday or Saturday, which allowed me to go. I'm so glad I lived my teens in that era.

    Yeah, 1995 was an amazing time to be into death metal. To be there when those records hit the music stores and then listening to them with your buddies for the first time. Those bands really delivered that year. We listened to those albums hundreds of times and studied the CD booklets in-and-out. In fact, that's how we learned of new bands, by who they thanked in the CD booklet.

    I missed the boat on Obituary tbh, i like that album with Dying on it (cant remember the name whoops) and even went to see them last year, the latest albums kicks ass
    Morbid Angel again, haven't listened to much of their stuff, love the track EYES TO SEE EARS TO HEAR though
    The Bleeding would probably make my list for sure
    And man i have never heard much good spoken of Six Feet Under so maybe ill give that album a listen
    Ones that would make my list are
    None So Vile by Cryptopsy (saw them a fortnight ago and christ alive was it madness)
    Nesphite by Demilich is insane
    Leprosy by Death, definition of a classic, saw Left to Die perform it a year ago and it was amazing, had some OG members.
    Suffocation's Effigy of the Forgotten would probably make my list too
    For a newer age band i would definitely say The Nine Choirs by Tribal Gaze, wowwzzza wowzza the inetnsity

    Have to agree with your SFU work, it's the best they've had since probably Maximum Violence, especially in the riff category. There's something to be said about not messing with the formula and going with the original intention and aesthetic. Cheers Rob! Can't wait to hear new tunes!
