Dehumanized - Prophecies Foretold (1998)

Totally killer NYC brutal death. A bit on the tech-y side but not really, and a few parts that you could almost call melodic but not really. Some death metal bands like to start their albums with a sample from an obscure horror movie, but not Dehumanized: right off the bat, they hit you with an (obviously not cleared) clip from Independence Day. L O fucking L.

1. Prophecies Foretold

Rising from the bowels of Earth
An immense creature appears
Spewing its vulgarity and evil
To all mankind
