CANNIBAL CORPSE Butchered At Birth LP Vinyl

Cannibal Corpse got banned in several countries for this record. Germany kept it off shelves for over a decade. That's not a warning, that's a recommendation.

Butchered at Birth landed in 1991 and cemented everything the Tampa death metal scene was quietly assembling, surgical precision in the riffs, completely deranged subject matter, and a production approach that sounded like it was recorded inside a meat locker. Chris Barnes was still fronting the band, and his vocal performance here is the blueprint that a thousand death metal singers have spent their careers trying to replicate. Alongside Tomb of the Mutilated the following year, this record defined a period where American death metal stopped being a regional curiosity and became an international obsession. The cover art alone has its own history. If you know, you know. If you don't, you're about to.

Standard 12-inch LP format. Price reflects import pressing.
