MORBID ANGEL’S ALTARS OF MADNESS: HAS IT REALLY BEEN 20 YEARS ALREADY?
Tuesday, May 12th, 2009 at 10:12am by Axl Rosenberg
Thanks to Cosmo Lee at Invisible Oranges for pointing out that today marks the 20th anniversary of the release of Morbid Angel’s historic debut, Altars of Madness. As Lee notes, “Morbid Angel weren’t kings of death metal yet. Altars of Madness was the beginning of their coup.” My personal favorite Angel album, Domination, was still six years away. But it’s impossible to ignore the importance of this release to the death metal genre.
After the jump, watch nine out of the ten songs on the record, as filmed for the Live Madness ‘89 concert film that captures the band performing just months after the album’s release. Live Madness is also available as a DVD that was included Altars‘ 2006 re-release.
