Customer Reviews:

this disc is a bacon special pizza with extra cheese!.......2002-08-31

This is probably the best collection of death metal tracks available. Autopsy weren't as 'technical' as some of the later death metal bands but they captured the intensity of the death metal experience better than anyone. The drum sound and the guitar sound is perfect for this genre, evoking stinking slabs of aural gore. Lyrically it's a bit immature in places, but this is in keeping with the b-grade horror feel of it all and an essential part of Autopsy as the complete death metal experience.
If you only ever buy one death metal CD make it this one!
There are a couple of live tracks on here too, which give some idea of what Riefert's vocals sounded like when he was drumming full-speed, see track 6, Service for a Vacant Coffin. There are also some rarities on here, such as the track 'Funereality', which was recorded in the 'Fiend for Blood' sessions but only released on the very-limited edition Peaceville sampler 'Volume 4'. Must have for all Autopsy fans. This makes my collection complete.

Autopsy's final slab in the mourge...........2002-04-18

This is not to be confused with a "Best of" or "Greatist Hits" compilation, more like should be considered as an anthology of wha best represented this cult-like Northern California Death Metal band that paved the way for modern Death Metal/Gore Grind bands. Everything about this release is great. The digipack packaging itself is worth the money, not to menton the number of songs on here. I would reccomend this to new fans of Autopsy, and then go ahead and start fiding their older material, if you're lucky enough to find it. The cover artwork itself reminds me a lot about the old Horror comic books from the 50's, 60's, and 70's such as Tales From The Crypt, Eerie...etc. The sound production itself is not that top-notch, but Chris Referit and Co. wouldn't have it anyother way. If you like this, check-out The Ravenous, and Abscess.
