The slow grinding, chorus riff juxtaposed over that blazing fast double bass drumming is really something special here

The most primal and brutal DM band, relentless carnage and a terrifying atmosphere... Morbid Angel will forever be in my top 3

I read this drummer, Pete Sandoval, redefined metal drumming forever. He was the first to take the concept of the blast beat ( which was just super fast single strokes on the snare, bass D. + cymbals) and actually put its concept into a timee signature. And other time signatures he could actuals use as beats and to metronome time. It was no longer just limited to extreme noise for music sake😉 . he changed metal forevever. one of the true legends. To a great man and a great drummer. To pete sandoval 🤘 the highest of horns

#1 Morbid Angel Album

2:29 Almost Mechanical

“And like the ways of the sheep The flock has been to only receive Led to the gates of their enemy Led to the slaughter of their beliefs And now their gazing eyes have turned Turned to see us laughing” The soundtrack for the end of the world. Absolute fucking masterpiece. Morbid Angel are peerless. This always makes me smile with such wicked, evil joy.

What's interesting about these lyrics is that it applies to all kingdoms and religious leaders that will kill for power and control. When it truly ends they will be left to fight each other when there is no more sheep to kill.

power, mastery, uniqueness.

I bet Gojira based the opening of In the wilderness on the opening of this song, very similar vibes

I have really the felling, that the gates are open.

This song and I are probably the most heaviest songs on the album in my opinion

I shared this song from Morbid Angel to broadcast it on Radio Saint Affrique FM. Thanx a lot, long living to rock 'n roll, you're the welcomes. Antoine

It's such a slow opening,and then beast unleashed upon the masses.

a lot of people think they had the best guitarist, drummer and vocalist in David Vincent. And I for one think that was absolutely the case, with their first few albums. It's what set them apart from the pac. God of emptiness is a good example of three super talented musicians creating a masterpiece.

@@FinalFrontier321 I don't have a source, but AFAIK the drums are replaced with samples in post (something that's been done to some degree on most metal albums from ~2000 and forwards), which is the reason for the drums sounding a bit weird and machine gun-esque. Samplers back then had several thousands times less CPU power and RAM compared to what we are used to today. Aside from that I've also read that the double kick part in the choruses of this song was actually recorded with a 16th note pattern, but was doubled to a 32th note pattern in post. Doesn't matter how they did it, I just love the brutality of the whole album.
