Products similar to Dictius Te Necare - Bethlehem
Tomb Of The Mutilated - Cannibal Corpse
Archetypal death metal.
Attempts to shock are pretty desperate at times.
Testify For My Victims - Carnal Forge
Improved vocals.
Outside of cheap gimmicks and different lyrics, all songs are the same.
Symphonies Of Sickness - Carcass
Greater musical skill, more satisfying songs.
May disappoint grindcore purists.
Isolate - Circus Maximus
Keeping the classic prog metal spirit alive through imitation.
Focus on commercial ballads is disappointing.
Gore Obssessed - Cannibal Corpse
They haven't become a nu-metal band, at least.
More of the same, worse than usual.
Fractured - Capharnaum
Some great guitar work.
Nothing particularly interesting here.
Eaten Back To Life - Cannibal Corpse
Enjoyable slice of early death metal, without over-reliance on shock value.
Uninspired.
Heavy Metal: The Score - Elmer Bernstein
A great, long sought-after Bernstein treasure
Really, there are none. This is a deserved release
Butchered At Birth - Cannibal Corpse
Ha ha, it's horrible.
Poor performance spoiled even further by terrible production.
