Great Death Metal as always Immolation did on each album. Immolation includes Keyboards so some songs have a dark touch. Where are the whole Immolation Discography!? "Dawn Of Possession" from 1989 is their best CD. 8.5/10

I'll need to add the rest of Immolation's discography when I find the time. They've become one of my favorite death-metal bands. I think the thing that appeals to me is that palpable sense of dread and foreboding in their riffs, the frequent descent into grueling doom riffs, and the somber, mournful and even despairing quality to Ross Dolan's vocals. Who says you can't be expressive within the context of a death-growl? Other signature elements include Bob Vigna's hand-contorting riffs and the lost-soul harmonics that punctuate them, plus those off-kilter, juddering rhythms. Failures For Gods is one of their best early albums. At this point in their career, their lyrics were mostly anti-Christian screeds; beginning with Harnessing Ruin in 2005, they broadened their approach to take in the entirety of man's folly and imminent downfall (of which religion is still a big part, but only a part). They've always struck me as a bit more thoughtful than someone like, say, Deicide. "No Jesus, No

"No Jesus, No Beast" is one of Immolation's all-time classics, and the title track is another top highlight. The production on Failures For Gods is a little disconcerting, with very loud bass drums—almost sounds like one pedal is miked up more than the other, or one of Alex Hernandez's feet is just stronger. This could be read as sloppiness or that much-vaunted "organic" quality, depending on your preference. People like to describe the band's overall sound and style by using references to sewers and sludgea and that's apt—a song like "God Made Filth" or "Stench Of High Heaven" really gives you the feeling of frantically crawling through thick muck to escape a dark, dripping underground world. But when you get topside, you find only a blighted, bombed-out urban landscape. Immolation may not be the most brutal or technically advanced death-metal bands out there, but they are certainly one of the most evocative.
