We have the Death By Metal demo from 1984. That sounds like an old tape the label tried to remaster but obviously they failed. Can you hear the vocals, the drums, the bass? No? Me neither. I only hear what could have been good riffs had they only been properly recorded. Other than that it's just noise. The next five songs are from the Reign Of Terror demo from 1985. You want to know what it's like? Read the above. It's exactly the same, if not even worse. I could have recorded something like that in my toilets for all it's worth. I won't say more about these demos because it makes me sick.
The last seven tracks were recorded live in 1990. Again, this is not a proper recording. It sounds like a bad bootleg. So yeah, there are good tracks here, 'Living Monstrosity', 'Zombie Ritual', 'Spiritual Healing' and stuff, but it's just so badly recorded that it tears my eardrums. No interest.
I'll keep it short: even if you are a die-hard Death fan, you don't need this. You should avoid this Zero Tolerance II like the plague, and just remember Chuck's legacy.

This sounds absolutely awful. post mortem compilations are never a good idea. capitalist bastards.

I always find it funny how peoplethink they know how it is just by not listening to the facts of the matter.

This just shows you don't know the label and the people behind it. Hell, Karmageddon and it's owner (of course ex-owner since Plastic Head now releases the Karmageddon/Hammerheart back catalogue) are immensely PRO downloading. You really think that stuff such as this sells a lot? You'd be lucky to sell 2,000 copies at most of these sorts of compilations.

I think since there is a separate Chuck Schuldiner profile, "Zero Tolerance" and "Zero Tolerance II" should be deleted from Death discography, or vice versa, Chuck Schuldiner profile should be deleted, and this review can moved to Death discography, which I actually think is more reasonable.

Posts: 3565 Written by Marcel Hubregtse on 31.12.2008 at 15:17 theres a difference in being pro downloading and trying to sell something at the expense of a deceased individual. the reason only 2,000 of these things sell is because on top of being a compilation album, its a BAD gimmick to try and persuade hardcore death fans to invest in KVLT merchandise. and if they really are pro-downloading, they'd give this away for free, which is the only price most people would be willing to pay for it.

The bottom line is that this is a proper rating for the compilation, and just wait till the new control denied comes out

Haha...firstl of all, you don't like the band, second, you mostly like Pink Floyd, Nirvana and stuff like that, and finally, why the hell you came to the metal community to blame a compilation album? Do you like metal at all and Heavy Metal in general? Well, you became maybe a reviewer only for the money that Metal Storm offers and maybe you were angry and you had a bad day while you reviewed this.
