5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome death metal, December 21, 2004

By	Believethelie (Chicago, IL USA) - See all my reviews

I bought this album because it was cheap. I wasn't expecting anything too amazing, but when i started listening to it i got hooked. I don't know much about this band, and this is the only album i have by them, but it is great death metal to listen to. I would say fans of Morbid Angel (me) would enjoy this ablum (i do).

5.0 out of 5 stars Hideous Death Metal Reprisal, August 20, 2003

By	Ronald Placeres "Chulo" (Miami, Florida) - See all my reviews

This is one of my favorite Malevolent Creation albums in my collection. I brought it sometime in late 1995. Years before this, the band was on hiatus. They were going through a lot of problems. Some of the problem were a bad record deal with Roadrunner, internal problems and the bad release of Stillborn which was considered a disaster by some fans as well as the band members themselves. The band also lost lead guitarist Rob Barrett and long-time vocals Brett Hoffman. By the way, the both of them will eventially rejoin the band for The Fine Art Of Murder later on. Anyway, the band was on hiatus and all of this was from 1993 until 1995. They did actually appear on 2 compliation albums called Live Death which was released in 1994 and The South Florida Slammie Awards CD which was realsed in 1995. That was pretty much the only time that the band showed their faces but between Stillborn and this album, they didn't put out a record. The first time I heard about the band releasing this album was when I stumbled across a review for it in a free magazine here in Florida called JAM Magazine. This was the same magazine that gave Deicide's Once Upon The Cross a bad review. Anyway, this album also got a bad review. After that, I should have looked for album and gotten it but I ignored it. Bad mistake. Than, I went on a couple of months without ever thinking about it but when it finally came to my attention, I went to the Camelot Music store at the mall near where I lived and ordered a copy. Than, I got it in a week. When I got it, I took it home and listend to it and it delivered.

Now for my review. I have been a fan of Malevolent Creation for a long and this album is one of the best by the band next to Retribution and In Cold Blood. It's also a new direction for the band. They are on a new labal called Pavement Music (now Crash Music) and Jason Bachowicz (now in Divine Empire) has taken up the vocal duties yet, still maintaining his spot as bassist for the band. Despite the new chances, the band still gives it 110% like always and this album is another example of the band as a musical weapon of mass destruction. It's got everything you would expect from a band like Malevolent and that is awesome, intense, all-out, in-your-face, butt-kicking, heavy, nasty, brutal, apocalyptic, annihilating, devestating, malevolent death metal at its ultimate best. Fans of Divine Empire, Hate Plow, Demented Ted, Deathchains, Nile, Oppressor, Monstrosity, Brutality, Sinister and an old Christain death metal band called Obliteration (who are now Death List) and also unknown Florida death metal bands like Demonomacy, Raped Ape (also Paingod), Amboog-A-Lard, Incessent Torment and Brutal Mastication will love this album. Some of my favorite songs here are Blood Brothers, Infernal Desire, Enslaved, To Kill, Eternal and Tasteful Agony. Buy this, take a listen, brace yourself and prepare yourself because all hell is going to break loose. You've been warned.

4.0 out of 5 stars eternal, November 5, 2000

By	oddity - See all my reviews

MALEVOLENT CREATION'S 1995 pavement records debut "ETERNAL" boasts a triumphant return after undergoing personal turmoil. it also followed a depressing point in their career that not only saw the band lose the interest of crucial vocalist brett hoffman, but also the interest of ROADRUNNER RECORDS, who had just started setting their financial sights on trendier and more easily marketable music. but what obviously didnt kill them made them stronger, as "ETERNAL" became the band's most hateful release yet. the obvious stand out track is "alliance or war" which is so catchy and potent that it could attract a positive response from someone that is not into death metal. other great tracks are "they breed" and "blood brothers". "ETERNAL" also marks the recording debut of new drummer dave culross, who is better represented with a better drum sound on the band's "FINE ART OF MURDER" release 3 years later. nevertheless, his work is near flawless. unfortunately, jason blachowicz's vocals and lyrics dont hold a candle to ex-vocalist brett hoffman's, even when brett was at his worst (1993's STILLBORN.)overall, ETERNAL is a great and solid death metal record worthy of 4 stars out of 5.
