MALLEUS MALEFICARUM, Maleficas, & earum hæresim, ut phramea potentissima conterens.



This is just awesome. The progressive element of the lead guitar paired with an old-school thrasher aesthetic results in a captivating sound that instills within me an undeniable sense of heroism in spite of modern life's futility.

"LOL."

Either way, Pestilence's "Consuming Impulse" is one of those albums I picked up in high school but haven't really started to appreciate until fairly recently. Forget about less-capable "Progressive" Death Metal stalwarts like Death (and here I would welcome your cheeky comments about the coincidental nomenclatures of the aforementioned band AND their respective genre of music), because this is some truly inspired/innovative death metal.
