Master – Master (1990)

September 7, 2020

I recently discovered that there was a trigger-free mix of this record, so I went back and spun it again after all these years (I think 2011 I listened to this last – wow!). Unlike Mayhem’s Grand Declaration…, Master’s self titled breathes new life with the triggers removed. Whether you’re in camp Master, or camp Death or camp Possessed when it comes to the death metal race, there can be no denying the influence that Master’s boggy analogue sound has had on many many bands to follow. Throw in an interesting cover of Sabbath’s “Children Of The Grave” and your laughing.
