This is probably the catchiest album they've ever released. I have this whole album stuck in my head. Anyways, the drumming is fucking incredible. Mike Smith sounds like a drum machine on Prelude to Repulsion when he slows the pace down, and the pulsating double bass on Redemption kicks my ass every time I listen to it on my sound system. The vocals are another thing that gets me. At first, for some reason, I thought he was losing his voice, but what he's doing is actually being articulate. You can pretty much make out the lyrics just from listening to it, and he still sounds brutal while delivering them. On certain points of pretty much every track, his voice will get suddenly deeper and it just fucking blows me away.
This album is more brutal than rearranging a blind midget's furniture. wait...has that one been used yet? |

Brutal 
Ima listen to it again right now. |

| Agree with pyroleprechaun, this album is brutal and catchy as hell. Most of the songs are of Suffocation's most momorable moments. |

| Everything is said already . All songs are very good , no fillers , only killers , great vocals , great drums. Thumbs up |
|

|
| Heard it months before it was released, and I'll say again what I said then: masterpiece, doesn't owe anything to the first 2 albums. "Redemption"=perfection, and I don't say this very often. |

| amazing album,but wtf is it with user score here? |
|
|
|
@AnarChrist- damn, you're right. A user score of 7.5 is waaaaaaaaay too low for this album. I guess people just can't handle the brutalness of
Suffocation.
This album is more brutal than braiding your pubes  |

| What? Despise the Sun is from 1998. Pierced From Within is from 1995. Other thatn that, great review Herz! |

| This album is perhaps my #2 or #3 pick for 2006 releases, it just blew me away. Its brutal, its catchy (most catchy from them?) and the drums are freaking amazing. I always praise Mike Smith on his ability behind the drums with his killer blasts beats and technicality. |

i should have got my hands on this earlier! but at least i have it now
this album is brilliant, some of the best stuff they have done
of course this isnt the same band that gave us 'Effigy Of The Forgotten' - but i think this album stands right up against it
brilliant stuff indeed |

|
| I've had this album for over a year and it still delivers the same goods as the first listen, perhaps even more. I'll never get over this album, at least not in this lifetime, and now ... i'm getting impatient for Blood Oath, oh man ... will it be as good ? or better ? |

| I was late to get this album because I haven't been huge on Suffocation's material post-Pierced and the songs I heard on this album didn't do much for me at first. But, I bought it this past month and really enjoy it. There are a bunch of reviews on the web that say this album is not innovative, but I disagree. There is plenty of new things that they've done on this album. Don't know what kind of score I would give it, but the album is enjoyable nonetheless. |

I don't want them to release another recycled "Pierced From Within", that would be fucking boring…
Good to know that, ''Pierced from within'' is still my favorite, the rest didnt' grow on me.
I will definetly check this one out soon. |

pierced from within is really one of the best albums a band has ever created... notice that i didnt talk about death metal... |

|
| So now i have to say that this one is an excellent album. it's very close to the 10. but it isn't songs like 6 or 8 are the reasons why... |

| Usually I am not a fan of breakdowns that some bands employ in their songs. However when Suffocation includes one it feels like an atom bomb has exploded near you. |

|
|
| I thought this album was great when it first came out, unfortunately I've come to only enjoy 'Abomination Reborn'. |
