technically tracks on this compilation album belong to different projects, yet all of them are the propriety of Jus Osborn, chronologically following since 1989 up to the moment when Electric Wizard was born, illustrating stylistic changes via severe sound evolution: Lord of Putrefaction tracks from 1991's vinyl split with Mortal Remains are in fact death metal manifestations, slowed down to absolute zero, with occasional outbursts of elemental energy, Thy Grief Eternal 1992's On Blackened Wings demo still sounds very desperate and epitomizes the historical breakthrough of British doom/death metal, while Eternal 1993's Lucifer's Children demo is so much closer to stoner doom with remarkable influence of early Cathedral and cardinally different vocal approach
