Editorial Reviews

Product Description
1994, Cyber records Holland. Arguably one of the most memorable moments in the once thriving early/mid 90s death metal scene. If you recall fondly albums like Crematory's "...Just dreaming" or Amorphis' "Tales from the 1000 lakes", you'll either be familiar with this gem, or have at least heard of it. One of the most original, and compelling pieces of music-art pressed on CD in the otherwise mundane 90s. Phlebotomized's utility of violins, pleasant interludes, and overall songwriting style was unparalleled at the time and to this day renders this one of the finest moments in death/extreme metal history. 9 tracks in total. Out of print.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dangerously Underrated, February 12, 2007

By	Bill Lumbergh "yeaahh..." (Initech) - See all my reviews

The early 90's spawned some of the most unique death metal bands that were far from the traditional style. Phlebotomized is one of these bands, and their 1994 debut full-length is proof.

This band has an avant-grade approach to their music and fuses different styles. Imagine taking "Tales Of A Thousand Lakes" by Amorphis and adding in some acoustic and changes in it. It even has some hardcore-style shoutouts in it as well. Each track is a wonderful adventure through a style of music that defies barriers and breaks ground.

I highly recommend this to the casual open-minded music fan. It's hard to come by, but it's worth the money.
