Deicide [Metallic Red & White] Vinyl

Step into the abyss with Deicide's eponymous debut - a cornerstone of death metal from the tumultuous 1990s. This remastered edition elevates an already iconic album to new levels of crushing intensity.

Emerging from the shadows in 1990, Deicide's self-titled album is not just a sonic assault; it's a seismic upheaval of the heavy metal landscape. Thrumming with anti-establishment fury, tracks like "Lunatic of God's Creation" and "Carnage in the Temple of the Damned" cast an unflinching light on the darker corners of organized religion, while "Sacrificial Suicide" and "Dead by Dawn" quickly entrenched themselves as genre-defining anthems. The metallic red and white "centurion" vinyl pressing offers a striking visual counterpart to the album's blistering sound.

The musical ferocity of Deicide is driven by the relentless twin guitar onslaught of the Hoffman brothers, Eric and Brian. Their piercing riffs and seething solos create a volatile foundation for Glen Benton's growling bass lines and venomous vocals. Yet, it's drummer Steve Asheim's unfathomable "blastbeat" barrages that punctuate the chaos, cementing his role as the dark force behind the band.

This remastered version ensures that the full, punishing detail of Deicide's original vision can be heard with staggering clarity. More than just a remaster, it's a homage to an era and a testament to the enduring power of true death metal. For collectors and connoisseurs of the genre, this vinyl is an unabashedly essential addition to your sonic arsenal.
