Great Follow-Up To Covenant!.......2007-03-10

For whatever reason, Domination has always been in the shadow of Covenant. Whenever you ask a Morbid Angel fan which album is his/her favorite of the two, more often than not, they'll choose Covenant over Domination. This has always puzzled me because I find Domination to be the superior release. David Vincent's vocals on this album are much more understandable and also more powerful. Another reason I prefer Domination is the fact that the tempos are much more varied, whereas Covenant is mostly a constant barrage of fast death metal. It may be just me, but I believe that this is Morbid Angel's best (next to Formulas). A must for Death Metal fans.

Favorite Tracks: Where The Slime Live, Eyes To See Ears To Hear, Hatework

The best of Morbid Angel.......2007-01-15

This album is amazing. It's by far Morbid Angel's best album. Everything on here is fantastic.

Some people have called this Morbid Angel's commercial album. What? I don't get it.

Proof that Morbid Angel is creative but not money-hungry........2006-08-24

Dave and the gang decide to hold back on the speed in their first three albums and focus on groovy, sludge metal. While I prefer their first three albums to this, I don't have a problem with this whatsoever because you still get the intense drumming from Pete and Trey and Erik deliver killer solos. To top it off, Dave's vocals are still haunting and his lyrics are very well written; no Korn s*** like "I hate this, I hate that, f*** everybody" lyrics in here.

Every song on here is good, but my favorites are the fierce opener "Dominate," the sludge masterpiece "Where the Slime Live," and the chilling closer "Hatework."

Your MA collection isn't complete without this album. If you want a good change of pace from the basics, this is for you. If you're a nu-metal fan, prepare to hate it.

Morbid Angel Rules!!!!.......2006-07-23

One day, me and the other third of the infamous thrash metal group Fumar were wandering through FYE. Walking up and down the aisles proved efficient when Morbid Angel's Domination caught my eye. I had never heard them before, but that satanic artwork just drew me in. I shelled out 10 bucks and my life has never been the same again. I was new to death metal (I only had Symbolic by the legendary Death, Warkult by Malevolent Creation, and Annihilation of the Wicked by Nile), and I wanted to give MA a try. I now have all their albums excluding "E".

Trey is an amazing guitarist and songwriter, Rutan's allright. Sandoval is amazing and Vincent is upset about something. I also recommend anything by Death, Gwar, and/or Anthrax.

People on Metal Archives are nuts! This is a quality piece of death metal.......2006-06-30

Whenever I get an album and listen to it for the first time I always look at the reviews for it on Amazon and the Metal Archives to see what a variety of other metalheads thought of said album. For this album though I was pretty damn surprised at the response from them with review titles like "Dave Vincent flips you off with both hands", one person even gave it a 30% WTF? Are you kidding me people? This is another solid MA release! What's a little different about this is that it's more groove-oriented, overall slower and simpler than the previous 3 albums and Dave's vocals sometimes seem like they're being strained just a tad too much (but they're still cool). I've heard some people even say that if Pantera made a death metal album it would sound similar to this one. Well I don't know about that exactly...

This album has some particularly great MA tracks like the opener "Dominate", "Where the Slime Live" and the closer "Hatework". The first is a speedy assault to the dome that has Death Metal legends written all over it, "Slime" is a powerful sludgy groove metal number with the usual anti-religious lyrics. Hatework is perhaps their most unusual song with Dave's angriest vocals yet. It has nice slow plodding riffs accompanied by some sweet melodies involving the bells of Hell itself! Some might say it's sound is tribal-like and I can see that too, nevertheless it's f*ckin' awesome. However, what I cannot see is the reason why a supposed death metal fan (let alone a Morbid Angel fan) would not like this. True, it's not quite as good as the previous 3 albums but it's still far above average and if I gave it a grade I'd give it an A- or 91%. Hey I only deal with the best music so trust me on this one. That would explain why I seem to give everything 5 stars I don't even bother buying below average crap or even average.
