Speaking of less known gems here's another album but this time in the realm of death metal. Early Gorguts came to mind when I heard this but this one is much more malignant, more sinister and more nuanced. Honestly the vocals are the only thing that are kinda middle of the road, they're your generic 90s death metal deep growls but the other parts of this intricate machinery are shining examples of innovation and progression that was occurring during the golden age (imho) of death metal. The music is riddled with these great passages between fast and slow parts that seamlessly come and go giving this album a good display of how should a dynamic album sound. Every track is some kind of maze of riffs and tempo changes with a good layering of subtle background atmosphere. A shame they didn't get more spotlight time.
