Editorial Reviews

UK 180gm blue vinyl LP repressing of the Death Metal legend's 1990 debut album housed in a gatefold sleeve. The album was banned in Germany (censored versions were available, but the ban was revoked in June 2006) and other countries because of the extreme nature of the cover art. Glen Benton of Deicide and Francis H. Howard of Opprobrium (then known as Incubus) perform back-up vocals on 'Mangled' and 'A Skull Full of Maggots'. Back On Black. --This text refers to the Vinyl edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars KILLER DEBUT, September 21, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Eaten Back to Life (Audio CD)

Oh MAN this album is awesome.i wish i could have been into this band way back when this album came out.bob rusay and jack owen kill on the guitar and paul is an insane drummer.chris barnes has got to be the greatest death metal vocalist ever.you can actually understand what he says at some points.for those of you [female dog] about the lyrics, why were you listening to a band called cannibal corpse in the first place?yet you complain about not understanding what hes saying?.death metal vocals are hard, believe me ive tried.anyway you looking to get into death metal? start here. the best songs are shredded humans, edible autopsy, put them to death, scattered remains splattered brains, rotting head, bloody chunks, and the absolute killer track a skull full of maggots.any metalhead will love this album.cc kicks [rump].

Cannibal Corpse is an awesome band.Simply Put. This album is very brutal, talented, and it has well written lyrics about blood and gore. This album is a must for metal heads.So just buy it unless you have terrible musical tastes.

Any one who is new to cannibal corpse and is thinking about buying one of their cd's don't go neer the bleeding and don't even think about the god-awful wretched spawn! This is cannibal corpse with chris barns and(i know what your thinking)sounds nothing like six feet under! If you think chris is good in six feet under your dead wrong because before chris lost his vioce he was in a band that released shocking album's and brutal music and what will always be remembered as one of the best the best death metal vocalist of all time. Eaten back to life is a classic debute album that launch the new wave of death metal in the early 90's! And out of all the death metal bands in the early 90's cannibal corpse was the most heaviest,sickest,and offensive. Some people thought the gore lyrics and the offensive artwork was to shocking for them so they strived away from this band and never gave them a listen and stuck with other bands such as sepultera,obituary,morbid angel,(good bands)and others. Than were the people who thought they were childish to write music about killing and gore and just labled it as talentless noise(wich is 100% not true)or either they thought the music was to extreme or heavy for them. Well those people sure did miss out on what still is one of the greatest death metal albums of all time, The guitars aren't as technical as in later releases but who cares! They still made some sick catchy hooks and brutal riffs that aren't found in later releases. The drumming is top notch. This cd will just make you wanna sing along to chris roaring out those brutal tales of horror,bang you head till it hurts,and beat the living piss out of someone! This also contains some of cannibal corpse's most memorable songs. Shredded humans is a shocking story about a mad-man in a car trying to kill a family of five on there way home having enjoyed a day in the sun(there encounter with gore has just begun). I love it how the guitars just shredd along on the part were chris say roars out"HIS SEATBELT WAS USELESS FOR HOLDIN HIM BACK,IT SIMPLY JUST CUT HIM IN TWO,LEGS WERE CRUSHED,OUT LEEKED HIS PUSS AS HIS SPINAL CHORD TOOK OFF AND FLEW" and than goes "THE MOTHER TOOK FLIGHT THROUGH THE GLASS,AND ENDED UP IMPALED ON A SIGN,HER INTESTINES STRETCHED FROM THE CAR DOWN THE ROAD,and than menacingly says"FOR A QUARTER MILE!"<(THAT PART BRINGS A SMILE TO MY FACE EVERY TIME!) All right, i think I have said enough about this album! Cannibal Corpses first release is strait up death metal,with awsome head banding riffs,and sing along verses that every death metal fan MUST own!
