Album Review

Despite being one of the longest-running death metal/black metal bands from the U.S., Deicide had a bit of a hurdle in front of them before working on their eighth studio album, 2006's The Stench of Redemption — founding members Eric and Brian Hoffman had exited the band. But growler/bassist Glen Benton soldiered on with a pair of quite accomplished replacements — Jack Owen (ex-Cannibal Corpse) and Ralph Santolla (ex-Iced Earth) — resulting in a release that follows the same path as Deicide's previous efforts. Featured are the grindcore-esque album-opening title track, the rapid-fire "Walk with the Devil in Dreams You Behold," and a barely recognizable cover of Deep Purple's "Black Night." Despite the lineup juggle, Deicide's trademark extreme metal sound has remained intact, as evidenced throughout The Stench of Redemption.

Customer Reviews

Five stars relative to previous album quality and considering their genre role

I would like to point out to those reading this review, that none of the one-star reviews that have ridden this albums score down actually compare this to previous Deicide discs or speak constructively about any of its qualities. Simply put,this is the best work deicide has EVER put out. Compared to some of their tepid mid to late 90's releases and even to their legendary self titles release and sophmore Legions album, this one is supreme. They have a newfound power, intensity and amazing presence which has truly been lacking to date; Even if you have been on the edge over Deicides vocals in the past, this is the one that may finally win you over. This is pure and powerfully death metal, and anyone expecting someone else should try elsewhere. Deicide is the ultimate voice of satan worshiping anti-religious music, and it does not look to be slowing down at anytime. Whether you agree with them lyrically or not ( I personally find them lyrically to be pushing some of the same conforming ritualistic religious patterns they criticize for another propped diety). they are definetly a force to be heard

death metal should be a religion.

Okay...it was bands like this that stoped me from listening to nu metal and converting to death metal. a great album...saw these guys on headbangers ball and i was instantly hooked.

This Album really rocks!!

I don't care what people say about Deicide, they are the best Death Metal band on this earth. This album may even put up competition for Legion, Deicide best album in my opinion. After the incident in Laredo, TX, they still can realese a great album. Its amazing how they work, and how glens voice suits this music. Lets hope we see more music like this, or maybe even another album from Deicide!!!
