The hugely influential debut of Possessed – and a major metal milestone! Hard rock and heavy metal bands from mainstream heroes to underground genre heavies dabbled with devilish lyrics and paired the sounds of lumbering heaviness and lightning speed before, but Possessed break so much sacred ground here in pushing those sounds forward. This one is oft-cited as the first death metal album and it'd be hard to argue there were many forbears! Includes "The Exorcist" (complete with the "Tubular Bells" inspired intro), "Pentagram", "Burning In Hell", "Evil Warriors", "Fallen Angel" and the genre-inspiring closer "Death Metal". LP, Vinyl record album
