Just got informed on the Archives that Immolation will be releasing a new album in early 2013.

Fuck. Yes.

Majesty and Decay was so. fucking. huge. I never heard the EP that came after but I'm told it, too, was excellent.

I am so ready for another full-length.

Neither have I. But I have all Immolation full-lengths and immensely enjoy them. One the few DM bands that I thoroughly absorb.

I only have Majesty and Decay, and Shadows in the Light.

Worth looking into their older stuff, then, I take it?

Most definitely. The production of their first few albums does not do justice to the complexity and detailing of their sound but still has a lot of atmosphere and does somewhat resonate for that, I suppose. However, after Failure for Gods, they managed to pull together a good production and their sound came alive and the production gave Immolation the annihilating sound they're so famous for!

Yeah, I think that the production (or at least, what I assumed the production would be like) was what stopped me from picking any of the earlier albums up before now.

As I said in the bad production thread, I think the more technical extreme bands need a clear production to be properly appreciated.

Well, if better production is not available to them, then it leaves no option but to release it which is very unfortunate.

Yeah, it is what it is. Sometimes you just have to accept it. Like for instance, I have a couple of old Suffocation albums, Effigy of the Forgotten and Pierced From Within. Great songs, but I wish the production did them justice.

Ya everything they've done is 100 percent unique and amazing. Though I would save Failures For God last, that is their weakest imo.

Here In After really needs a classic review 'round here.

Here in After the best place to start with the older ones?

I would say so. However Unholy Cult is the best starting place just in general. By far their most brutal album is Close To A World Below. Those 3 represent their most unique work imo.

Edit: As for their most underrated album, I would give that to Harnessing Ruin. It has kind of a weak production but the song writing is just so good. The riffs and the solos are powerful yet so catchy.

I think what elevates this band above most others in the genre is the almost beautiful touch they mix into the song writing at times. They never stray far from being brutal and crushing as hell of course, but still it can be very reminiscent of Chuck Schuldiner's work at times.

Hm, vocals aside, yes, especially Red-Skinned Scapegoat which brings the jazzy bits back...

I don't hate this, yet I won't be searching out the album when it comes out.

So if I'm reading this correctly, you're basically saying I should start with....all of them. Hehe, ok. Makes my life easy. I'll pick up whichever one I find!

I've seen fan-made covers that I like better than this one, but at least it's finally coming.

Milan · **Posted:** Sat Aug 18, 2012 9:55 pm

I agree with that word for word. I've never really liked album covers that stared back at me.
