As promised, the /r/deathmetal Album of the Week series has been started and will be an ongoing project that updates every week; this is our twentieth. These will, in line with /r/metal's format, be almost (but not entirely) exclusively 20th, 25th, and 30th anniversary releases from the month in which the album was released, though they won't necessarily be from the exact day or even week. Some of the releases will be extremely popular classics, but they could also be more obscure; they'll always be killer, though, and highly recommended listening. This week's choice is a classic album from the legendary Finnish death metal scene.
Band: Purtenance, from Nokia, Finland.
Album: Member of Immortal Damnation, released in 1992, exact date unknown.
Rotting, crushing death metal that shows a lot of what the Finnish scene was the best known for. Heavy bass presence, crushing trem lines, brutally fast sections and slow, doom laden ones; off kilter rhythms occasionally flirt with weird melodies, but for the most part this is one of the more straight forward albums from the scene coming from one of the first bands to be a part of it.
>It's inside of us
>Dark minded, red violence
>Rebirth...
>From the clay, gray misery
