CD ReviewsFor death metal this gets 4 stars I Rock | Pennsylvania, USA | 12/21/2007 (4 out of 5 stars) "Morbid Angel's first proper album is a must have within the death metal realm. I have a "limied edition" two-disc package that contains the audio Cd and a DVD of their November 1989 Nottingham Rock City show, filmed on 4 cameras, as part of Morbid Angel's performance on the 'Grindcrusher' tour. This DVD is the best - to see Morbid Angel live on an early tour like this is amazing. Trey Azagthoth blows my mind on guitar and is simply amazing to watch. If you can get this release with the DVD, that's the best. Altars of Madness is extreme: it's fast, scary, loud, growling... just as evil, possibly more evil, than Slayer. The music on Altars just doesn't let up- the double bass drums will pound you into submission, the vocals would scare Satan himself, and the guitars are shred-a-riff-ic. And there are even songs that I find catchy and can't get out my head after listening to them, which is odd for me with death metal usually it's not something I walk away humming or repeating over in my head afterwards. If you want to experience death metal, the first Morbid Angel album is one to check out for sure. My favorite tracks include: Immortal Rites, Maze Of Torment, Lord Of All Fevers & Plague, Bleed For The Devil, and the ENTIRE DVD." Death metal milestone Charles | San Diego, CA | 06/04/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "This album is a milestone for death metal and is probably the greatest effort by Morbid Angel. The guitars a little bit soft on this CD and the solos are weak as far as sound is but it still displays the guitar work of master Trey Azagthoth. David Vincent's vocals sound very demonic and raspy growling in this CD compared to his more grave and deeper vocals which would be features in the next three records by Morbid Angel. All the songs on this CD are pure mayhem and speed up so fast and the blast beating is incredible! This is definitelty a must have for death metal fans~!"
