Choosing Death: The Original Soundtrack has been made to aurally illustrate Albert Mudrian's book Choosing Death: The Improbable History of Death Metal & Grindcore. It contains 77 minutes of music from the biggest and most influential artists of death metal & grindcore genres. Everything from Carcass, Death, Morbid Angel, Cannibal Corpse to At the Gates and Opeth have been included (among many others). There are even some never-before-heard songs from Nihilist (pre-Entombed), Pig Destroyer and Suffocation included on this collection. Most of the "big names" of death metal have been featured on this album, so one could assume the musical content will be of high quality. However, not all of the songs are good and actually about half of the album's content is trifling. Also the production of certain songs is quite a disappointment. Some songs have been mixed way too bassy (for example, the 5th track). Also some songs had distortion and clipping, so the production varies quite a lot between different artists. The good songs on this album are tracks 10, 11, 12, 13, 17 and 19 (at least in my book). Overall, this collection could have been a lot better. It isn't a total failure, but it's no success either. The song choices are partly good, but some song choices could have been better. Also the production on some songs is horrible (and therefore I can't wholly enjoy of listening this album). The worst production can be heard on the third track (it sounded worse than most demo recordings). By the way, I don't know the line-up of SIEGE so if you know it, please feel free to use the contact form. Release dates: 22.11.2004 (Europe) and 23.11.2004 (Canada). It's already released in US (09.11.2004). Visit Choosing Death Website - MAGE (13.11.2004) « back
