Morbid Angel
Gateways to Annihilation
This could quite possibly be the most underrated death metal album ever released. During the Steve Tucker era of Morbid Angel, I'd always hear people going off about how it's not Morbid Angel anymore, but I've never heard a single valid explanation of how he didn't live up to David Vincent's legacy. The riffs are very "heavy", while retaining the distinctive Morbid Angel vibe, on top of using detuned 7 strings. The bass is very tight and prominent, and Pete Sandoval is much more versatile than usual, varying his blast beats and incorporating new drumming techniques. Steve Tucker's vocals are very unique, and I'm not sure why more people don't

Akercocke
Choronzon
Upon purchasing this album, I was very let down. As a big fan of Akercocke, I always expect top notch tracks all the way through and little to no predictable songs. I've tried so hard to get into this CD and it just isn't working. There are way too many time fillers that don't accomplish the unique musical atmosphere that they're famous for(they're just kind of... there.) All in all, the only notable tracks are Leviathan and Becoming the Adversary, which make up for most of what the album lacks as a whole, but I didn't buy the CD for two good songs. Choronzon is a definite turning point for the band, so I don't think that the problem lies in
