I really like the shredding/airy aspect of this record, Suffocation are letting their music "breathe" for a change.



Plus I wouldn't want a Pierced From Within/Effigy of the Forgotten repetition, Blood Oath, Suffocation and Souls To Deny are enough in that respect.



With all analogies accounted for, Pinnacle of Bedlam reminds me of Death's Symbolic.

Back in the day and immediately after its release Symbolic was criticised by the old school death metal circuit as "shredding" and "too melodic".



Of course, the general consensus changed as the time passed by.



Previous comments in this thread reminded me the above.

It's a great album to listen to as background music and in dedicated listening sessions, it works in both cases.



Suffocation and Souls To Deny for example, don't work so well for me in dedicated listens.

When I listen to this record I'm invaded by a sense of warmth. The singer growls so sweetly to my

ears that I feel like it's my dear mum whispering to me. What an extraordinary amount of love

beneath this chaos. Awesome album.
