What pain will it take to satisfy your sick appetite go in for the kill always in sight-prey the time always right-feast feed on the pain-taste sorrow made flesh-sweet live how you want just don't feed on me if you doubt what i say i will make you believe shallow are words from those who starve for a dream not their own to slash and scar. Big words, small mind behind the pain you will find a scavenger of human sorrow scavenger abstract theory the weapon of choice used by scavenger of human sorrow scavenger. [Solo: Schuldiner / Hamm] So you have traveled far across the sea to spread your written brand of misery. Always in sight, prey The time always right, feast Feed on the pain, taste Sorrow made flesh, sweet. Live how you want Just don't feed on me If you doubt what I say I will make you believe Shallow are words From those who starve For a dream not their own to Slash and scar. Big words, small mind Behind the pain you will find a scavenger Of human sorrow Scavenger. Abstract theory The weapon of choice used by a scavenger Of human sorrow Scavenger. 2. Bite The Pain. Look down at the body you may see no trace of wounds but in the eye the eye of the beholder one cannot assume. Not a drop of blood is drawn but you know how it bleeds beware of the sharp edged weapon called human being. It is a shield of passion and strong will from this I am the victor instead of the kill. I will not feed your hunger, instead I bite the pain looking not back, but forward I bite down hard try to cover up the trail of deceit and daggers spawned from your soul. [Solo Hamm / Schuldiner] Acid, the tears of remorse flow in vain, too late for regrets save it for the next ill fated game. 3. Spirit Crusher. It comes from the depths of a place unknown to the keeper of dreams if it could then it would steal the sun and the moon from the sky beware. Human at sight, monster at heart don't let it inside it could tear you right apart. No guilt, it feeds in plain sight Spirit Crusher Stay strong and hold on tight Spirit Crusher. Speaking in killing words. The vicious kind that crush and kill no mercy, its pleasure to taste The blood that it bled. [Solo Schuldiner / Hamm] When it's time to feed to fulfill the need to consume a breath some will rise standing tall breathing out all the breath from the voice of a soul. 4. Story To Tell. Drifting into the lives seep into the soul where emotions hide dark skies were beating me down with shadows of deceit slashing at trust till it forever bleeds with doubt, with pain, with trust is pain. When you think of me in your multidimensional mind, try and wash the "evil" from your mind and open it. When you taste the truth you will see like others before me, to you I am past, a story to tell tell it. [solo Hamm / Schuldiner] You may think you own the end take another close look at the script. of sadness etched in the book. 5. The Flesh And The Power It Holds. I told you once but I will say it again when you live the flesh it is the beginning of the end it will take you in it will spit you out behold the flesh and the power it holds passion is a poison laced with pleasure bitter sweet one of many faces that hide deep beneath it will take you in it will spit you out behold the flesh and the power it holds touch, taste, breathe, consumed deja-vu. already knew from the first encounter but know I know to let go of words to speak no more like a wind upon your face you can't see it but you know it's there, when beauty shows its ugly face, just be prepared. [Solo Schuldiner] Passion burns like fire carried by the wind the end of a time, a time to begin it builds you up one way and tears you right back down, a time to begin the end of a time. Touch, taste, breathe, consumed. 6. Voice Of The Soul. 7. To Forgive Is To Suffer. Throughout our time a thought escapes us to enforce a word, no holding on to pain it may seem to some. The easy way to say o.k., twist your knife a little deeper words so sharp actions dark hide the blade of the deceiver. Enforce the words no more, be free alone you might just find serenity. To accept another day we choose to give away another piece of life to forgive is to suffer. [Solo Schuldiner] Once or twice is kind three or four is blind it is not the end yet a way to begin the power of words both good and bad. 8. A Moment of Clarity. I would describe it as an invisible darkness casting a shadow, a blinding black guarded by hope, my soul is kept safe from the bloody claws. Look to beyond, what vision lets me see time after time, unneeded misery holding tight to my dreams I own no price for you I grip them tight and hope for sight. Open my eyes wide to see a moment of clarity confusion gone, it's in your hands your turn to ask why. [Solo Hamm / Schuldiner] Life is like a mystery with many clues, but with few answers to tell us what it is that we can do to look for messages that keep us from the truth. [fade out solo: Schuldiner] 9. Painkiller. [JUDAS PRIEST cover] Faster than a bullet Terrifying scream Enraged and full of anger He's half man and half machine. Rides the Metal Monster Breathing smoke and fire Closing in with vengeance soaring high. He is the Painkiller This is the Painkiller. Planets devastated Mankind's on its knees A saviour comes from out the skies In answer to their pleas. Through boiling clouds of thunder Blasting bolts of steel Evils going under deadly wheels. He is the Painkiller This is the Painkiller. Faster than a lazer bullet Louder than an atom bomb Chromium plated boiling metal Brighter than a thousand suns. Flying high on rapture Stronger free and brave Nevermore encaptured They've been brought back from the grave. With mankind resurrected Forever to survive Returns from Armageddon to the skies. He is the Painkiller This is the Painkiller Wings of steel Painkiller Deadly wheels Painkiller.

This is my countdown of the best Death albums. Death is one of my favorite bands and one of my biggest musical influences. The band created everything from primal 80’s death metal to instrumentally impressive progressive metal. I’ve played and covered many of their songs. I’ve already done a list of the best Death songs, so I figure I’ll follow it up with this: a list of the best Death albums from best to worst. Small disclaimer: Of course, there is no worst Death album. In fact they’re all awesome! About the author.

Death full-length studio discography. Scream Bloody Gore, 1987 Leprosy, 1988 Spiritual Healing, 1990 Human, 1991 Individual Thought Patterns, 1993 Symbolic, 1995 The Sound of Perseverance, 1998. Death albums ranked from best to worst. Enough presentation and background, here’s my ranking of the best Death albums! 7. “Spiritual Healing” (1990) “Spiritual Healing” is often mentioned as the most underrated Death album. I agree that it’s a quality disc, but it’s still my least favorite. The style is somewhere between thrashy “Leprosy” and progressive “Human”, without really competing with either of them in terms of songwriting. My favorite song from “Spiritual Healing” is the thrashy, catchy opening track “Living Monstrosity”. 6. The Sound of Perseverance (1998) Rightfully criticized for its instrumental indulgence, but I can’t deny that it’s a great record. Songs like “Spirit Crusher” and “Flesh and the Power It Holds” have been staples in my playlist for years. Chuck’s hoarse vocals may not be at their best, but some of the riffs and hooks are still downright fantastic. There is also a new emotional tone in the guitar playing, culminating in instrumental “Voice of the Soul”. 5. “Leprosy” (1988) The opening track is an immortal Death classic, and there’s more value on the disc as well. Not as raw as the debut “Scream Bloody Gore, but it features some very cool death/thrash moves typical for the time period. Chuck’s vocals are in top form on “Leprosy” and the songs are highly headbangable. 4. “Scream Bloody Gore” (1987) “Scream Bloody Gore” set a lot of standards for death metal. It’s also one hell of a brutal and animalistic album from a young band. The songs are extremely primal and simple, but the hooks are very well-written. I’ve had each of the songs on my head at least once. “Zombie Ritual” and “Evil Dead” are the most famous tracks, but I favour “Baptized in Blood”, “Beyond the Unholy Grave” and the title track. Check out my collaboration cover of “Baptized in Blood” below. 3. “Individual Thought Patterns” (1993) An album both technical and catchy at the same time, “Individual Thoughts Patterns” features Death classics like “Trapped in a Corner”, “The Philosopher” and “Overactive Imagination”. The guitarwork is ridicilously good, both in terms of riffs and leads. It’s also hard to ignore a rhythm section consisting of Gene Hoglan and Steve DiGiorgio. 2. “Human” (1991) “Human” features the rhythm section from progressive death giants Cynic and takes the technical side of Death to a new level. It’s really as much of a progressive metal album as it is a death metal album. “Human” is filled with punishing riffs and creative rhythms. This is topped off by big, catchy hooks. I love all the tracks, but my favorites are probably “Suicide Machine”, “Lack of Comprehension” and “Flattening of Emotions”. 1. “Symbolic” (1995) “Symbolic” features many of Death’s most classic songs and it’s still my favorite. The sound on the album is Death at its most accessible. There’s a strong progressive metal and melodic death metal influence. It also features some of Chuck’s best and most passionate lyric writing. All nine songs are fantastic, only the closing track “Perennial Quest” show some signs of slowing down. “Crystal Mountain” is the big hit from the album, but you can’t really go wrong anywhere on “Symbolic”. If you like Death, you might like my bands. None of my bands sound a lot like Death, but the band has definitely been a big influence during my musical evolution. My two main projects are the old school death metal band Desolator and the progressive death/doom metal band Soliloquium. Check them out on your favorite music platform by following the links below. The best way to support me as a musician and content creator is to buy digital downloads or merch from Bandcamp. The Sound of Perseverance. Some of the songs on The Sound of Perseverance were originally going to appear on the first Control Denied album. When Death was signed to Nuclear Blast Chuck agreed to make one last Death album before moving forward with Control Denied. Japanese version released by Victor.

Words cannot do this album enough justice. This is a truly glorious metal release, certainly Death's finest hour, and easily one of the top metal albums of all time. The sheer ferocity and emotion that channels through each of the intricate, progressive guitar melodies shatters every low opinion of the American metal scene. When you combine Chuck Schuldiner's shrieking vocals (his eeriest performance ever) with the most talented, cohesive lineup yet, you get the definitive Death album. This album delicately mixes the best aspects of past albums Human, Individual Thought Patterns, and Symbolic and takes them one step further. The album is more aggressive, more progressive, and certainly more melodic. Therefore, when opener "Scavenger of Human Sorrow" kicks off, the complexity of the music suffocates the listener, allowing him no room to breathe. Even the instrumental piece, "Voice of the Soul," requires the listener's full attention so that he can grasp the raw emotion carefully woven within. No "true" metal listener can ignore the fact that Death have carefully crafted the perfect album for the metal world, an album which draws from the creative pool of Atheist, Dream Theater, and Cynic yet remains pure unadulterated Death. The ungodly solos and leads that swim within "Story to Tell" and "Spiritcrusher" (which contains one of the most terrifying, blood-curdling choruses ever) are among the album's highlights. As is the eight-minute epic "Flesh and the Power It Holds," which runs over the listener with a Meshuggah-like chug before flourishing into a fret-dancing solo from Schuldiner. The ball doesn't really drop until the pure intensity of Judas Priest's "Painkiller" works the listener over with its singalong chorus and over-the-top musicianship. When Schuldiner opens the song with his power metal scream, still with a raspy aftertaste, the listener is treated to arguably his greatest, most dynamic vocal performance ever. The fact that the solos in the song were entirely new Death creations is like icing on the cake. Props go out to new guitarist Shannon Hamm, new bassist Scott Clendenin, and new drummer Richard Christy for rounding out the strongest (albeit unknown) lineup Death has ever had.
