Swansong. Or whatever the hell that last Angelcorpse album was called. Sheesh.

I'm going to go with OP in this one. I think Jon agrees, too.

I understand that this is an obvious answer, and maybe you don't want someone to steal your thunder if you wait to post it, but dude...thread over. This record sucks anti-cosmic donkey dick.

The fact that he got out of prison, did that weird headlining tour with that album and then...killed himself, wtf? I don't really know anything about the guy, but...shit, total madness.

Can a "collection of outtakes and sessions" be considered, though?

I think there are a lot of albums that are SO fucking terrible, but not disappointing because they had such a ghastly lead-in, such as: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_1950 (never heard it - pretty confident it blows) [OK covers, disqualified, whatever] {but still... this happened}

Then there's the category of albums that were so bad (not meant to be swansong albums) the band had to quit anyway.

The was no way in hell they would have been able to match/exceed the first LP. It was stupid of them to try.

True fact, however I was at least hoping for something better than that garbage... I remember e-mailing Oscar about something back when this came out and he was even making fun of how horrible it was... album definitely deserves a :what:

too bad it was Jesse's true swansong.. :cry:

Dissection and Terrorizer are definitely tops, but this one is a stinker to me.

That's a decent answer Dann, but I feel like the drop from Anthems to IX is about the same as the drop from IX to Prometheus... maybe?

I don't think it's all that big a difference from what they were doing prior---the whole schtick just got old. I ne'er listen to that one though.

Emperor sounds like a Gay Parade after ITNE. Way to fruit it up with keyboard fanfares, Ihsahn. Prometheus was embarrassing.

That`s true, but the could have at least worked within the same genre as the first.
