Mid/upper teir album, good enough to relisten.
I found the mastering for this album strangely good, it's pretty immersive at some points. The solo in Follow the Blood shows off what I mean.
Favorites: Murderous Rampage, Follow the Blood, and Surround, Kill, Devour.

The consistency across this entire album is unmatched in my opinion.
Lyrics, composition, heaviness, and technicality are all great here.
Favorites are: Sarcophagic Frenzy, Encased in Concrete, and Followed Home Then Killed. Everything else is close behind with no particular outliers.
This was actually the first metal album I ever heard, all because of guitar hero.
Every track is perfect and fades into eachother perfectly, not much more to say.
