However, of the 5 original members, only Luke Renno (bass, vocals) and Miles Sunde (guitars) are still active with the band. Kevin Sundbery \u2013 known for his machine-gun blast-beats \u2013 replaced the original drummer sometime before the release of Unearthed and remained during the &#8217;90s and early 2000&#8217;s era which is when the band released their 3 full-length studio albums \u2013 <em>Unearthed<\/em> (1994,1995), <em>Dissection<\/em> (1997), <em>Purification <\/em>(2002). And it was on <em>Unearthed<\/em>, with the line-up changes, where they switched to a death metal style akin to that of early Mortification with low, guttural vocals and blast-beat drumming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This cover artwork was originally featured on the R.E.X. Records issue from 1995 and was superior to that from the original 1994 Atomic Records issue (pictured below). Certainly, the depiction of the human &#8220;carcass&#8221; had the shock-factor associated with death metal circa 1995, and it certainly fit better within the framework of the album&#8217;s lyrical observations. It has been enhanced by Scott Waters with subtle \u201creflective\u201d improvements in the album title and sharpening of the band logo. This first-time on vinyl features the original tracks from the 1995 R.E.X. Records release remastered for vinyl by Rob Colwell. The Gold Series Edition CD (#3 in the series) which has been released in conjunction with the vinyl features new 8-page booklet and the 7 songs from the <em>Plagued<\/em> demo, which have also been remastered. Not surprisingly, it all looks and sounds spectacular.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/heavensmetalmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/d7ac5b_b361c4ea90c34c5f9f717e9005b5c002-mv2-6.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"288\" height=\"290\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Vinyl<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Unearthed<\/em> is an aptly named album, and one well suited to the visceral, sensory-laden quality of vinyl. In a way, this an old-school metal album \u2013 its just 3 guys laying it down thick and heavy as fast and as heavy as humanly possible. Its raw power driven by sweat and grit \u2013 a flesh-driven metal machine powered by raw muscle memory and a strong conviction in the promises and tenants of the Lord. When you listen to these songs, there is no holding &#8211; back, its full-on pedal to the metal! The death-y guitar rhythms from start to finish are relentless \u2013 there aren\u2019t any tracks on this album where you can pause and come up for air. These songs cover so many spiritual realities within the first 10 minutes it will have your head reeling and your soul mourning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This vinyl remaster is something to behold. The sound pulsating from the speakers is almost unbelievable for a death metal release. Never before have I heard this kind of articulation of sound in an extreme metal release. It\u2019s like the vocals are so clear and they stand literally out &#8220;in front&#8221; of the speakers \u2013 Renno\u2019s guttural exegesis harsh yet discernible in uncanny fashion. The guitars seem to step back in the mix during the vocal outpourings and then jump to the front of the house in crushing fashion during the breaks. Sundbery\u2019s alternations between double bass and straight two-handed blasting are simply obliterating. &nbsp;And, overall, the balance between drums, guitars and vocals is perfect with no one instrument dominating, yet all of them are equally represented. The band boasted no overdubs or effects on the vocals \u2013 its brutal and raw. Needless to say it\u2019s so refreshing to hear this kind of a recording in the current era of over-processed metal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Crimson Thorn - Asphyxiated (Bombworks Records Remaster)\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/fk9rDUTN-Lc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Lyrically, there is no denying the stance of this band \u2013 these guys are full on Christ, and as brutal is the music, so are the words (I love visceral lyrics!).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em><span class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-red-color\">\u201c\u2026and if you don\u2019t do it with your carcasses, you do it with your mind!\u201d<\/span> &nbsp;&#8211; <\/em>Your Carcass<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>This song accurately portrays the struggle between flesh\/mind and spirit &#8211;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><span class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-red-color\">&#8220;<strong><em>O wretched man that I am\/Who shall deliver me from this carcass of death&#8221;<\/em><\/strong><\/span><strong><em> \u2013<\/em><\/strong> <strong>Jesus<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAsphyxiated\u201d is not only a crushing song musically, but these words are equally relentless in the truth they espouse \u2013<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em><span class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-red-color\">\u201cSlowly rotting \u2013 into a useless crusade of sin\/You have fallen away\/Scrounging to make your own way\/Life seem fun when you\u2019re on the run\/But soon you\u2019ll see your judgment day.\u201d<\/span><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMalignant Masters\u201d masterfully points out the folly of our educational leaders.

My understanding is that the quality of the remaster has always been more important than the coating of the CD. The booklet has been nicely reworked by Scott Waters \u2013 the lyrics now very easy to read \u2013 and I am a fan of the Gold Edition banner on the front cover. I don\u2019t have the old digital files to compare, so I can\u2019t honestly say if this CD sounds better than the original R.E.X. issue, but I can say it sounds well-balanced, yet not near as strikingly dynamic as the vinyl master.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/heavensmetalmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/d7ac5b_46ca0f1e16de462aad6335f2c4dd7afa-mv2_d_2746_2813_s_4_2-1.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;Most importantly, the Gold Edition CD contains bonus tracks in the form of the original 1993 <em>Plagued<\/em> demo, which I assume has been remastered as well because it sounds pretty darn excellent for demo quality material. I\u2019ve never heard these songs prior to this release, but the sound quality if very respectable. Crimson Thorn employed a different vocal style on these songs. In contrast to the guttural low-end monster vocals of <em>Unearthed<\/em>, the vocals are harsh, yet more reminiscent of late 80\u2019s thrash. The guitars and drums sound like a combination of Anthrax and Metallica and some of the songs are quite long, with guitar solos and fast tom drum fills. The music is great, but not very original. In fact, some of these riffs seem a bit too close for my tastes to original Metallica tracks. Song titles like \u201cPerverse Policies\u201d and \u201cMisrepresented Representatives\u201d call to mind the wit and cynicism of Megadeth. The open guitar section in this latter song totally cops Metallica. Still it is obvious that these guys could clearly throw it down, and for demo material its quite good and I think many would also like to see <em>Plagued<\/em> receive vinyl treatment. Note: the lyrics to the demo songs are not included in the booklet. Nevertheless, the demo tracks definitely make getting this new CD version more compelling.
