Thanks again!

The record itself is definitely near mint. When I played it today it sounded as if it had never been played! I love the riffs as you mentioned, and Speckmann's vocals are sick man. Absolutely the perfect voice for this type of old-school death metal.

I like the whole primitive approach they had for this album. Everything just sounds like one big jam session, which is JUST how I like it. I love albums that sound like this, and hate over-produced plastic crap. The whole album was like a 27 minute assault.

The ending to their self-titled song is the shit too... "wear the Master's crown!... YOU FUCKING WIMPS!"

Hahaha, epic. The first time I heard that I knew I had to have the album :D

I agree 100%

To me, production is almost as important as the music itself. It can make or ruin ANY album. That's why I respect any new bands that take the old-school sound seriously and make the albums the RIGHT way (regardless of whether I like their music or not).

I remember the first time I heard my favorite album, Under the Sign of Hell... you can hear Grim's drumsticks when they are put down at the end of songs. That might not sound like a big deal but it definitely made a huge impact on me. I felt like I was part of the recording process or something, haha. That sounds ridiculous, I know, but I just loved attitude they had back then. It's like... "were here, were going to record, and get the fuck out of here."

To this day, the original Under the Sign of Hell recording is tops for me. I don't think there will ever be a better album recorded, ever. That album is intense right down to the detailed dick!

Personally I wouldn't know what to do with myself without my first press Under the Sign of Hell LP. I have one of the re-issue CDs, but without that particular vinyl I am nobody.

I have some rare and expensive shit, but I would rather give all of that up and keep my one Under the Sign of Hell LP if I had to. That's how much I love that album. It sounds crazy, but it's like channeling hell itself every time I play it, what a rush!

Needless to say, it might not be the rarest or most expensive in my collection, but it's the one closest to my heart.
