This album slaps. Also, weird that two of the most thunderous death metal vocalists of our age are both named Simon - the dude here and the dude from Baest.
Absolutely love Carnation. Chapel of Abhorrence and Where Death Lies are powerhouse death metal albums which I spin even today. This album in so many ways advances Carnation's sound into gloomier, heavier, more brutal spheres than before. But those melodic vocals on Replicant.....wow. What a misstep! Seriously, speaking as a fan, stay in your fuckin lane, bud.
