Damn, the purulence side and especially Sinking Into Transparency show-lights the significant influence Steeve Hurdle would have had on Gorguts' Obscura. Rest in peace Big Steeve, you absolute legend in unorthodox death metal.
Would never forget what you've given us. You are missed and you would be missed. But your legacy continues to live on with such awesomeness. Till then rest in peace, Steeve.
I just realized the cover art is a depiction of a story in the Simarilion by Tolkien. The story where the elves are given the knowledge of how to forge rings of power. Sauron does this in the form of another being.
The Elven realms flourished for over one thousand years until SA 1200 when Sauron, under the guise of a messenger from the Valar, appeared out of the East to offer knowledge to the elves. Gil-galad mistrusted him and barred him from his kingdom. Sauron then approached Celebrimbor and the Elves of Eregion, and against Gil-galad's advice they accepted him and his knowledge. With Annatar's help, Celebrimbor forged the Rings of Power..
Caralho essa faixa é sensacional, lembra muito morbid angel mas ironicamente tem um peso muito mais mórbido, sujo e podre. Destaque pela variedade de riffs e ritmos da bateria pqp sensacional
Such a shame that so many late 80s/early 90s recordings were so squished, scooped and overly compressed. This is a really good blend of Morbid Angel's Blessed are the Sick, Suffocation's Breeding the Spawn, and Gorguts' Erosion of Sanity, but with Steeve Hurdle's specific brand of abstract esotericism on top. Basically, it's like a bonus track off of Obscura or FWTH.
Out of all the great musicians the metal scene has lost over the years, Steeve Hurdle might be the one that hurts the most. He still had a lot of creative energy left that will now remain untapped. RIP, big man :(
Yeah, makes me wonder how much their later material was thought of by Steve. Doesn't sound quite as wonky/dissonant/WTF but it's not hard to hear where a lot of it would come from.
rest in peace how fun i have to play this song with you I hope you are where you wanted to be i know you wating me for a long trip of suffering ____ in hell____ and I KNOW only you understand , no matter where you are
@BrecMadak yes, but on the other hand, it doesnt sound much like Altars of Madness nor Blessed Are The Sick, which were the only albums by MA released prior to this split. Extremely underrated band, Purulence!
saw these guys live many times,they were one of my favs around montreal,thanks now i klnow were steve hurdle was fdamiliar from,he was in this band,,what a dumb ass i am,,lolgood weed in mtl
this is so fucking awesome, awesome weird death metal. original grinding death metal , reminds me a little bit of skeleton of god (urine garden) , i think morbid angel was influenced by this band as well

Rest in peace Big Steeve, you absolute legend in unorthodox death metal.
This is real fucking Death Metal and one of my top favorite Death Metal songs of all time. R.I.P BIG STEEVE
RIP Steeve Hurdle thank you for your forwarding thinking approach to extreme metal

Parts of this song even sound alot like the riffs that would go into From Wisdom To Hate....Amazing!

RIP, big man :(
RIP Steeve Hurdle... :( He was such a great musician.
got that Morbid Angel feel to it
yea, they sound like Tucker-era Morbid Angel before Tucker-era Morbid Angel
(pro tip: obscure band Eulogy from Florida also sound similar)
@@mysteriousDSF not even that big a fan and I thought this exact same thing MDSF lol
this is one of the best osdm songs there is. rip steeve
Also you have to appreciate the absolute morbid angel worship, definitely an underrated gem from Canada, to which we have many.

I hope someone makes a compilation of this band's material.
Thanks for putting this up...!
The utmost gratitude for your genius concepts, creative techniques & your unique contributions to metal.
Rest in peace Steeve.

great groupe from my hometown, awesome, bravo les gars !!!
when death metal was played from the heart...twice as bright, half as long, r.i.p..
Rest in peace, brother.
Your legacy lives on!
I still can not believe that in 1993 there was a song that can beat 90% of all metal songs thereafter...
Yeah, makes me wonder how much their later material was thought of by Steve. Doesn't sound quite as wonky/dissonant/WTF but it's not hard to hear where a lot of it would come from.
@alifeofarcticsounds Or it could be that the guitarist of this band later joined Gorguts and contributed to the writing of Obscura ;)
rest in peace

@cannibalcam are you serious?considered dead and erosion of sanity are one of the best death metal releases ever!
Sounds like a cross between Domination and BATS
The true death metal cult !!!
Que discazo a la vena...

metal-archivesDOTcom/bands/Purulence/2859
Let me remind you that all band members were women...
I tend to think they are some of the most generic releases in the history of death metal .
Fudidaço morbid Angel rules
