Miasma - Changes

Absolutely ferocious and hellish. This album has one of the murkiest and suffocating, yet so intense and perfectly audible tones I've heard - certainly close to the classic buzzsaw riffing associated with Swedish death metal, but taken to a totally different level with the drumming truly standing out as absolutely chaotic and adding a texture of extremity.

Fantastic album, a definite contender for the soundtrack to hell, and a must-listen for everyone. I'd go as far as to say that was probably the heaviest and most monolithic piece of metal (and perhaps music in general) that existed by 1992 (though maybe John Zorn is an exception), and it still holds strong to this day, blowing most other death metal records out of the water in the sheer intensity aspect.

Listen to this fucking thing.

But your description makes it sounds like something I should avoid.

I suppose this is my cue to derail the conservation and label you as a culturally insensitive imperialist blowhard who refuses to accept music made from ethnicities he deems lowlife and savage. There is no other conceivable explanation for your heinous rejection of this gem.

My "skills" in being an agitator have gotten rusty with time, it seems.

Hail to the new king - Godbuster.

Even I do reach his pinnacle of agitation.

What the fuck? Did Bad English start an alt account? Amateur hour.

Anyway, Changes is good shit, and I guess I'll leave it at that. See you in X months, I guess.

Surprised to see this on few lists as it is but it is standard despite sounding the part. At least worthy of trying once even if what it does is unmemorable it sounds reminiscent of where Bloodbath likely went.

[Edit] yeah this is definitely overlooked on here. Many would easily lap this up.
