It’s a relatively quiet day here at rlslog, so I decided to keep the site busy as always with another music post. This time a “Best of” from US Death Metal band Suffocation. Personally I’m not a huge fan of “best of” compilations, but they can be very useful for someone who wants to start listening to a band which has released a lot of albums. The discographies of some bands out there can be rather intimidating and its often very hard to know where to begin.

Suffocation fused the predominant rhythmic styles of early death metal, with complex song structures to start a new subgenre of music, considered brutal death metal by some. Suffocation is placed amongst peers Immolation, Incantation, and Morpheus (Descends) as being part of a genetic fragment of death metal known as “New York Death Metal”, or “NYDM” for short. The band is also known for having two African American musicians (drummer Mike Smith and guitarist Terrance Hobbs) which is rare in the underground metal scene.
