Possessed's Greatest Hits!

"Victims of Death is a greatest hits compilation thatcame out in the early 90's for the greatest death metal band EVER! Possessed! If you are new to Possessed then you should definitely start here, but if you've been a fan and have all their albums...then theres really no point! I love the song selections from Seven Churches, they have most of the best songs, like Pentagram, Seven Churches, Fallen Angel, the Exorcist, Burning in Hell, and Death Metal!(don't really like this track, they should of chosed Evil Warriors instead) From Beyond the Gates we have March to Die and Beyond the Gates. Both are very good songs, but I wished they included more from this under-rated album like Heretic, Tribulation, or Seance. From Eyes of Horror the EP they have Swing of the Axe and Eyes of Horror. Again great songs but it would have been nice to include My Belief, Confessions, or Storm in my Mind. They definitely had more room for this record since its only 35 minutes long, and CD's fit about 74 minutes!!!"

Great Band !! Poor Compilation Release

"I loved everything Possessed put out, but this I feel is lacking.

This is suppose to be a "Best Of", and with only 10 songs ??

Possessed was a great Death Metal band, They had more than 10 "best of" songs,

and the cd could've held more than 10 tracks. The producers also

did'nt bother to level off the sound,so there are tracks they are low in

output and some louder than others.



The packaging is not so great either. This was juts thrown together with no thought put in it, it's too bad.

There however are some good songs on the cd, just not enough for a "Best Of"

Cd is worth the listen, but for collectors, it's not worth the 32-35 dollar

range sellers are asking. I would pay no more than 15.00."
