A nice debut album showcasing quickly what would come. A lot of metal bands are or were more popular in real life than they are on this site but the genre seems to be growing a lot here too. They became one of the more known Brutal/Tech bands in the 2000s and 2010s.

"Lethal Manipulation" hits with brutal visceral shredding and leads into a solid groove before engaging in more technical flare. The drums are very active. Pleasant effective riffing for a good start. ... read more

Tbh I think this is a very accessible bdm record for people who aren't completely on board with it yet. That being said though this isn't that less extreme then any other bdm album, it is just as pummeling and head pounding and has a lot of cool techy moments.

Very brutally solid debut from origin, not as techy as their later stuff but it’s still heavy as hell and doesn’t loose any of the awesomeness that makes origin as cool as they are.
