this is absolutely epochal sixth studio longplay by legendary Floridian superforce, engraved with golden letters into the metal music annals, performed by one of the most important and influential death metal acts ever known: highly emotional progressive mood prevails all through the nine soul-touching compositions, yet it does not lack fundamental metal anger or masterful passages by Chuck Schuldiner and Gene Hoglan; unbridled creativity, complex arrangements, innovative approach, awe-inspiring technicality, distinctive vocals with accordingly compelling philosophical lyrics, and refreshing dynamics inspiring time changes that Nostradamus would have had trouble predicting make this unique experience historical, crowned by the milestones of Crystal Mountain and Empty Words; recent European edition comes with authentic design
