Morgoth? A name forgotten by most, until recently. I didn't knew them myself, until Century Media released a best-of. So I decided to give this band a try and I found this album, Odium.
First listening, I was already in love with it. And now? no day without at least a Morgoth song (guess it's hopeless now).
So this review for you? First of all I must warm you that Century Media doesn't press it anymore (I hope this will change in the future?), so you'll have difficulties just to find it. There are three songs from this album on the best of ("Resistance", "Under The Surface" and "Drowning Sun").

Death metal and industrial don't blend? My butt! Morgoth were not the first to mix both styles, but they certainly were precursors anyway, with this fantastic beast of an album, released in 1993.

Of course, the band was criticized back then by the 'fans'. Forget that, forget the latest Morbid Angel, and remember the re-united Morgoth will play some festivals this summer.

The industrial touches here and there really helped this album to be the bludgeoning beast that it is. Great stuff.

Good album - but I wish there would be more rememberable highlights like the stunning "Under The Surface" (one of those very few DM songs you recognize right after the first two seconds and will most probably never forget...).
