Following our review, this album disappeared into a flurry of new releases, so I returned to give it a listen. Most will appreciate the classic 1990s guitar tone but the faithfulness to old school while having its own voice is in my view its most attractive trait.

A band in town wanted to visit this place so, after a brief consultation with MapQuest, we were on our way, and found an old-school Texas eatery: a trailer converted into a kitchen, bathrooms, and standing area with picnic tables around it for people to enjoy their burgers, fries, and onion rings.

In the early days of death metal, some contributions got overlooked because people were more interested in what was developing at the time. For example, brutal death metal overshadowed a lot of other bands, and when the audience caught up with American death metal, much European death metal got overlooked.

Time comes like waves, and your wave bounces off the shore and then heads out to sea while others follow it. You stay on your path, but now there are many more paths, and they may coincide with yours briefly, but you have to pursue your destiny, which is what the underground has done as metal bloats around it.

Life philosophies differ across the Bell Curve. In the middle, where the big bucks are, people want to avoid unpleasant thoughts about their status in the world; on either end, people know that their role is not what most idealize and, as a result, have accepted their limitations (left) or duties (right).
