You know I really love albums on which I can hear the bass really distinctly. Well, Scream Bloody Gore is one of those albums. There are a couple of things about reviewing this album and the album itself that I think are funny. First, I have never paid attention to that distinct bass sound before I decided to review this album. Second, I started this review from this exact point, with no introduction. And third, this great raw bass sound comes from the band that used to rehearse, record, and play shows without a bassist in the early days. As Chuck once said, "Two guitars and drums, no bass...just complete raw metal." Well, fortunately bass is present on this one, and it's actually a very important feature, which adds some extra heaviness that young Chuck definitely wanted to hear on his first record.

The year is 1987, thrash metal is in its heyday, Metallica are preparing to release "?And Justice For All" and Chuck Schuldiner is about to put the beginning of his glorious career as a musician. This is the man, who decided that metal should take a deadly shape, crating an album of not only musical, but of historic value. This is considered by many the first death metal album and I would pretty much agree with them. For the first time the lyrical concept deals with desecrating, brutal killing, a lot of blood and a lot of death.

I think this album might be better than the Sound of Perseverance. It's raw and really intense. That's what I love about it. R. I.P. Chuck. You were taken to soon. 🤘🤘

There's no "might be" about it. It's definitely better in my opinion.

It's better in my books too.

I've always found Death an extraordinary band as they have something to offer for any death metal fan, whether you prefer their OSDM stuff or later tech/prog or thrashy stuff is a matter of taste. I personally like everything they've released to a degree, whether I prefer this to TSOP is a tough call though, this I find the more accessible, and perhaps more enjoyable of the two, but TSOP is simply off the scale in terms of musicianship, there's very few albums that I've listened to that have been able to blend technicality and melody in such a way as that. Despite this, SBG is my most listened to album of theirs by far, but that doesn't necessarily mean I find it their best as that for me would be the flawless Symbolic.

How are you supposed to compare SBG and TSoP anyway? They’re literally two completely different styles. Pretty pointless.

A fun and straightforward proto-death metal album. Essentially a thrash record with growled vocals.

It’s simple, energetic, and easy to listen to. None of their later progressive or experimental elements are present yet. Just direct, no-frills songwriting with a raw, in-your-face delivery and classic horror-themed lyrics.
