Cancer (UK) - To The Gory End (1989)


Cancer (UK) - To The Gory End (1989)

Death Metal really picked up and exploded around 1990.  This is one of those albums released a year before.  Yes, Death had already released a few albums and were already boring as fuck by then and plenty of bands had demos, but there were nowhere near as many full Death Metal LPs in 1989 as there was in 1990.  You had Obituary, Morbid Angel, Atheist, Autopsy, Morgoth, and Pestillence, just to name a few of the bigger names.  You also had this album, Cancer.  I find a lot of the bands who released a Death Metal album in 1989 had a lot darker, primitive feel about them.  This is a good thing.  To The Gory End is no exception and straight away you can see just from the cover artwork this is apparent.  I mean come on, if you hadn't already noticed, this artwork is taken straight from George A. Romero's 1978 film Dawn Of The Dead.  Perfect for a Death Metal album with a title like To The Gory End.  I wont even start to get into how good these songs are otherwise I will be here all night.  Just fucking worship this album.
