You're not funny to me. So I'd appreciate it if you didn't insult me when trying to be. If you can't contain your humor then it might be easier to not address me at all on this forum.

Every single one up until "Nomen Illi Mors" were released on vinyl. No official CD versions were done at the time as far as I know (but possibly later).

On the other hand, their final album "In Agony Rise" from '96 was CD-only.

Liked a tune or two but not in my fav list.......

Nevertheless they were quite active in the europian thrash underground back in the day and HIGHLY respected..........

I'm very prejudicial in regard of forming strong initial opinions on first look at album artworks. Unfortunately I had the misfortune of seeing Merciless slaughter artwork and this always affected my perception of the music in a negative way.

I think the cover of Merciless Slaughter is excellently grotesque. A real nightmare in wax.

Merciless Slaughter has one of the best thrash metal covers of all-time.

Too bad Merciless Slaughter didn't sound as good as the live EP. Or it might've been in my top 10 albums of all-time too.

I'm curious: does anyone know if the MS cover art is a piece of special FX or "the real deal"?

I think I saw that picture (+ other ones from the same serie) on rotten.com once. But I guess that doesn't make it the real deal, since rotten had lots of fake stuff through out the years.

MS cover is great imo.

It's a picture of a wax head.

I think all Flames covers are great! That M.S. LP one is sickening, the debut is very "cult"
Really dig that band

everything these guys did was gold. and yes, M.S. artwork is sickening! brutal-er than 10,000 DEVOURMENT clones, haha..
