Deicide - Deicide [Red and White Metallic]

Dive into the abyss with Deicide's self-titled debut album – a cornerstone of 1990s death metal. This remastered edition elevates an already iconic album to new heights of devastating intensity.

Emerging from the shadows in 1990, Deicide's self-titled album isn't just a sonic assault; it’s a seismic shift in the heavy metal landscape. Vibrant with anti-establishment fury, tracks like "Lunatic of God's Creation" and "Carnage in the Temple of the Damned" shine a harsh light on the darkest corners of organized religion, while "Sacrificial Suicide" and "Dead by Dawn" quickly establish themselves as genre-defining anthems. The metallic red and white “centurion” vinyl pressing provides a striking visual counterpoint to the album’s searing sound.

The musical ferocity of Deicide is carried by the incessant assault of the twin guitars of the Hoffman brothers, Eric and Brian. Their piercing riffs and searing solos create a volatile foundation for Glen Benton's rumbling basslines and venomous vocals. Yet it's drummer Steve Asheim's barrage of unfathomable blastbeats that punctuate the chaos, cementing his role as the dark force behind the band.

This remastered version ensures that every impactful detail of Deicide's original vision can be heard with stunning clarity. More than just a remaster, it's a tribute 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 absolutely essential addition to your sonic arsenal.
