Horrified - In the Garden of the Unearthly Delights (1993)


Greek atmospheric death metal. You'd be forgiven for expecting a band called Horrified with a song titled "Baptized in Venereal Blood" to play grind-y, gore-soaked death metal, but they are actually very much in line with the moderately raw, epic sound for which the Hellenic extreme metal scene is most famous, complete with droning keyboards and quasi-operatic, lady-of-the-lake-sounding guest vocals.

Track listing:
1. The Awakening
2. Elisaph
3. Early Dawn Enraged
4. Crawling Silence
5. Down at the Valley of the Great Encounter
6. Dying Forest
7. Baptized in Venereal Blood
8. Poetry of War
9. Unbridled God
10. Dancing Next to Dying Souls

Lying sun
Forgotten faith
