The first clean vocals in Death Metal were not actually in Unorthodox but in Left Hand Path by Entombed. In the song Bitter Loss, L.G. Petrov (RIP) uses clean baritone vocals.
Oh Dan Swanö is a Genius. He has definitely helped bands like Insomnium, Be’Lakor, In Mourning, Wilderun and honestly even Opeth. Dan Swano also is a Masterful producer as well. Crimson 1 and Purgatory afterglow are my favorites as well.
Edge Of Sanity is such an underrated band when it comes to metal, not jus death metal, but metal in general. Here is my list: 8. Nothing But Death Remains 7. Cryptic 6. Infernal 5. Unorthodox 4. Purgatory Afterglow 3. The Spectral Sorrows 2. Crimson pt. 2 1. Crimson
8. Cryptic 7. Nothing but Death Remains 6. Infernal 5. Unorthodox 4. Crimson II 3. Purgatory Afterglow 2. Spectral Sorrows 1. Crimson Edge of Sanity is my favorite band by far. Personally prefer them over Opeth.
Holy crud I found acknowledgement of my favorite metal band. Anyway, I couldn't rank them all so I'll just rant about EOS. I found Crimson via a RU-vid comment and was blown away by those 40 minutes, then again by Crimson 2, which is my favorite EOS album, and the one I would argue to possibly be the greatest death metal album, or possibly metal album in general. Combined with the best lyric writing in metal that I've ever heard and the legendary outro, It would absolutely be the greatest if Mikael's "Unholy god" scream from Crimson pt. 7 returned. I've actually become acquainted with Dan via Instagram DMs. He is actually one of the coolest dudes I've ever talked to. Clearly respects his fans just as much as we do him. Any other EOS videos or EOS related videos you could direct me to? From literally anyone, it doesn't matter.
For me, it's: #1 Crimson II #2 Crimson #3 Purgatory Afterglow #4 The Spectral Sorrows #5 The Unorthodox #6 Infernal #7 Cryptic #8 Nothing But Death Remains I'd put "Until Eternity Ends" up there as well, but it's an EP.
One of my fav band of all time and the most underrated for sure. I listen to them since the release of Unorthodox and I was hooked. My ranking will be different than yours 8 : Crimson 2 (A Swanö album but without the other members) 7 : Cryptic ( An EoS album but without Dan) 6 : Infernal (Great but the other albums are better) 5 : Nothing but Death Remains (100% agree, production is lame but music is great) 4 : Crimson ( Very good concept album, an anthology of extreme music) 3 : Unorthodox (My first experience with EoS and still love it, Enigma, Dead but dreaming, A curfew for the damned and many more excellent songs) 2 : Purgatory Afterglow (Masterpiece, dark, brutal, agressive and melodic) 1 : The Spectral Sorrows (Another masterpiece, proggy, more melodic, a lot of clean vocals but what an album!! Darkday, Living Hell, Lost, The masque, and last but not least Jesus Cries and the crucifixion at the end 😂) For the 2 firsts in this ranking it depends on my mood. Because I love them equally
@@rahmatsumantri6577 Here's a top 10 but too hard to rank them 1. Darkday 2. Enigma 3. Blood coloured 4. Hell is where the heart is 5. The sinner and the sadness 6. On the other side 7. Of darksome origin 8. Until eternity ends 9. Jesus cries And last but not least 10. Crimson (the 1st one) And damn I must tell a few others : Living Hell, Burn the sun, Impulsive necroplasma, A curfew for the damned It's too damn difficult 🤘😜🤘
8. Cryptic 7. Nothing but death remains 6. Unorthodox 5. Infernal 4. The spectral sorrows 3. Crimson 2. Crimson II 1. Purgatory afterglow Cryptic is the only EoS album I don‘t own as it‘s not even a proper EoS album for me. EoS without Dan Swanö is like Queen without Freddie or Emperor without Ihsahn.
I think The Spectral Sorrows is my favourite. At least it is the album I`ve listen to the most. Followed by Crimson, Unorthodox and Purgatory Afterglow.
Lol, crimson 2 isn't eos the band, Dan wrote, performed, mixed and mastered the whole thing himself. He did have some guest musicians but still, it's Dan's album more then eos album. Don't get me wrong, it's great, it's like moontower 2🤤
8) Nothing But Death Remains 7) Unorthodox 6) Cryptic 5) Infernal 4) Crimson II 3) The Spectral Sorrows 2) Crimson 1) Purgatory Afterglow What would be of many Extreme bands without EoS and Dan Swanö? I'm happy to see their influences in Be'lakor, In Mourning, Barren Earth and Insomnium, finally the overdone Gothemburg style is being challenged. Thank you Dan for all your contributions to the Extreme scene and i hope to hear new music soon.
I’ve been of fan of the spectral sorrows for years now. I just listened to purgatory afterglow and my first impression of the album is that it’s pretty lame. Maybe it will grow on me but idk
For me is like this: 1.Purgatory Afterglow (first one I bought with them and one of my all time favorite albums) 2.Nothing but Death Remains (shocked at first listen, coming after Purgatory Afterglow to some more primitive death metal, that's why is my second favorite) 3.The Spectral Sorrow 4.Unorthodox 5.Crimson (I'm not into gimmicks like this, having a one loooong song and it's also the most progressive one. I'm not a big prog fan) 6.Crimson II 7.Infernal (good but they kinda said everything they had to at this point) 8.Cryptic (kinda forgettable... there still are good moments in there).
@@rahmatsumantri6577 Well, I could tell you just listen to Purgatory Afterglow and The Spectral Sorrow, but it wouldn't be too fair: 01. The Sinner and the Sadness 02. ...Of Darksome Origin 03. Twilight 04. Darkday 05. Waiting to Die 06. Across the Fields of Forever 07. Velvet Dreams 08. Livin' Hell 09. Not of this World 10. On the Other Side 11. Silent 12. Immortal Souls 13. Human Aberration 14. Bleed 14. Everlasting 15. The Silent Threat ...should be enough
@@rahmatsumantri6577 You might wanna check this guys covers too. Some of the songs have a... better sound on his channel www.youtube.com/@rumi_guitar_covers Horns up bro!
#1 The Spectral Sorrows (Masterpiece) #2 The Unorthodox (very close second) #3 Purgatory Afterglow #4 Crimson #5 Infernal #6 Crimson II #7 Nothing But Death Remains (I used to hate this album because I listened to SS and Unorthodox first) #8 Cryptic
