I've been listening to Morbid Angel's Covenant since it's release in 1993 (that's about 28 years). It never gets old. I will listen to this masterpiece of a record for the rest of my life.
One of the most important albums of the 20th Century was Morbid Angels' Covenant. Maybe some wouldn't agree, but this album brought extreme music to the forefront. I remember it too. Bands like Cannibal Corpse, Gorguts (in my school anyway) and Sepultura suddenly were just a little more accepted by the "average ear". The Green Days and REM could co exist with Pestilence and Suffocation. Weird, right?
Covenant is like one of the highest selling Death Metal album of all time and many record labels started signing Death Metal bands after the success of this album.

death metal as Dave said it best there are no boundaries you can do whatever they want this song was a slap in the face a wake up call for death metal bands to be creative and go above and BEYOND
Wow ,,Now THATS a crispy high-end .Big difference i must say ,,as a sound engineer myself this was an awesome re-master.So much more color in the range,,good job,love this shit

The first time I had ever heard of Morbid Angel was when this song played on Headbangers Ball back in the early 1990s. I have never really been a fan of death metal, but there was something about this song that really captured me. It rates up there with Cradle of Filth (another band I really like).
Nope 6 string always. With a floating floyd rose w locking headstock you can take back plate off guitar unscrew the 2 bolts and get super low, use a heavier gauge string then re-level the tremolo til you're at the tuning you want. Most all Old school dm bands did this. We we're super low never used 7 strings. Listen to mortician hacked up for barbeque. All 6 string w 5 string bass.
@@Attached-data1 Morbid angel used 6 string in Eb tuning until dominate. Where they use 7 string ibanez universe.... Not 6 string. And "most all old school dm bands" did not tune that low bro. Most bands where in Eb or D. This song here is literally half a step down bro. C standard was pretty common, less so than D standard. C# is a overlooked tuning used by some of the greats (bolt thrower, suffocation, dying fetus...) Overall D was absolutely the most common tuning due to it being used by Death. But the diversity of tuning alone proves what you said makes no sense lol. Most bands did not tune as low as mortician hahahaha. Mortician doesnt need a 7 string because they dont play solos, the reason for the 7 string is to still have the high E string. Trey Az used 7 string to be able to play any old solo or song on the same guitar. In Ab tuning. Which could not be achieved with a 6 string tuned to Ab where you lose the highest string. Before spewing nonsense information maybe think before you type. It's completely fine to tune 6 strings way down, but to imply it's somehow better or cooler than a 7 string you sound so moronic man. I like hacked up, I even have a shirt of it, but mortician is literally an obscure band. ALMOST NO ONE used the method you directly state was used by most bands lol.
I believe death metal, altogether, would've been considerably weaker as a genre had that song never existed. Puts the genre into perspective on what it can achieve and what it might be about.
That is precisely where it became groundbreaking in originality and way ahead of it’s time in regards to the death metal scene of 1993. No vocalist of the death metal genre had ever dared to even consider singing cleans before David introduced their use with GOE. The antithesis of “stupid”, this track is not just masterfully composed, it’s also awe-inspiring in it’s uniqueness and exquisitely showcases David’s immense talent for creating biblically accurate, cerebral lyrical content conveying an evil undercurrent. This masterpiece already has done and will inevitably continue to stand the test of time, forever cementing MA into the Death Metal Hall Of Fame.
I interpret "Let the children come to me- their mother loves me so shall they! Woman bleeding ate my gifts- man was close behind" to mean that a guy paid a visit to a lady he knows and brought her some cookies as a gift. Her children go to greet him and her husband stands nearby. They're all on friendly terms 😀
It is like a Remastered Edition where the very word doesn’t leave a foul taste in one’s mouth, but so subtle and nuanced that people truly need both versions side-by-side to pick up on how much effort has gone into making everything hit Just Right(or Left, if that is your thing😏) 🤘☠️🤘 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
É medonho pedir para colocar essa música num bar karaokê eu estava sozinho mesmo não tinha chegado nenhum cliente eu disse para o DJ que essa música é pesada e medonha ele disse para não pedir essa música eu falei para ele kkkkkkkk
David's voice is lower than my income.
Also lower than my self-esteem.
lmao
Lower than a snakes ball bag.
His voice is angelic.
Bwahahaha easily the best comment this year. I'd send you money if I could afford it.....
I think I've never heard a song that is so equally heavy and dark and somehow so calm and peaceful
Exactly. When i need to calm down i listen to it.
This is officially Morbid Angel's balad.
Doom metal is full of stuff like that
Exactly why it's my favourite genre of music. It possesses every human emotion.
Facts
I like how the demonic growl is the voice of reason while the more normal voice is the evil one.
I always thought they were both the evil one. Both are the Devil talking with God
@@adamknapper6680 They are... its just a mock and complainment of hatred and dissapointment to Heaven.
The demonic growl knows heaven is a dictatorship.
I think that was a bear.
