Such a step up from Scream Bloody Gore, Death's second album Leprosy truly developed their signature sound. Schuldiner put together an actual band (he recorded everything on Scream Bloody Gore himself, except the drums), and the difference is remarkable. While not the most talented formation Death would ever see, Andrews' fast, far more impressive drumming and the addition of a real second guitarist in Rozz, who, although a bit overshadowed by the man who made it all happen, still manages to hold his own when necessary. Leprosy packs much more technicality, and even a touch of melody, which was a much needed change. One of many prime moments in Death's quality career.
Best cut: Leprosy

Perhaps the most underrated of all Death releases although that could equally go to Spiritual Healing, this has some amazing songs such as the title track, open casket and pull the plug, and is a hellishly consistent of raw early death metal. The riff work is as tight as can be and chuck sounds evil on here. its a shame that the drums always sound exactly the same or perhaps this would be among their best work.

If their debut helped to shape Death Metal, Leprosy is definitely more mature and solid. My favourite tracks here are Leprosy, Pull the Plug and Open Casket. Another DM classic from Chuck Schuldiner (RIP)

I don't think I can name another dm band whose released 7 plus albums and managed to put together as consistent of a discography.
As with any other Death album this is fucking awesome (songs like 'Left to Die', 'Pull the plug', 'Open Casket' etc. are all classics), that being said if I had to choose a "weakest Death album" it would either be this one or The Sound of Perseverance.
Obviously Leprosy is sort of a midway point between the grittiness and brutality of SBG and the more technical approach taken with Spiritual Healing but I just don't see this as being quite as effective as either of them (although still excellent).

My favorite Death album, and the only one I couldn't find in stores anywhere. This is where they really defined what would be known as the "old school" death metal sound. Any newcomer to the genre should give this album a listen with an emphasis on "Pull the Plug" and "Open Casket."
