[@adamrad2220]

Funny story, when I was first getting into metal in the early 2000s, I bought Slayer, Metallica, iron Maiden, and then I branched out to some cool looking CDs that our CD store had, and I bought some primal fear and gamma ray albums. There were some other bands I bought during this time, but they were all pretty standard, though awesome, traditional or power metal. Then, one day I bought the sound of perseverance. Based purely off how the cover looked. I still remember listening to that album for the first time. My ears honestly didn't understand what i was even hearing, but the novelty and guitar playing was enough for me to want to just keep listening to it over and over. It's like, every time I listen to that album, some other part would click, or I'd hear something slightly different. Anyway, I still reminisce about my first couple days with that album, and how confused yet intrigued and in love I was with it.

[@felipeyanquen8676]

maybe spiritual healing in the 7th position, i think sbg is such a innovative proposal if you take into account nobody was doing that as heavy as death, and spiritual healling wasnt too innovative, the era where death metal was that raw in 1990 had already passed

[@stevai6732]

I'm the opposite, the other are cheese in comparison to the top 3. Always thought the older albums were overrated. Even Chuck said the band was tongue in cheek starting out I just can't vibe with it.

[@newwaveinfantry8362]

The reason Death has expanded so much recently, besides the fact that it's an insanely good band, is the fact that, despite being an 80s band that hasn't existed since 2001, they are were an early zoomer band. What I mean by that is that no riff stays for more than one minute, which is about our attention span.

A minute? You're giving them too much credit.

[@YouCanCallMeXoe]

I remember getting introduced to Death through a Guitar World mag back in I think 2008, showcasing the top 50 fastest players, regardless of genre. It's also where I first discovered Dillinger Escape Plan and Children Of Bodom, and all three are bands that would become all timers for me. While DEP taught me the art of dissonance and making complex tracks that sound more noise than music at times, and Bodom taught me the art of insanely catchy melodies blended with something so heavy, what Death taught me was that this type of Metal could be so captivating, mezmerizing, life changing. A song like Crystal Mountain, with it's acoustic guitar solo, or how Individual Thought Patterns has Steve DiGiorgio's beautifully quirky fretless noodling all over it. Death's first few records are very good for what they are, but if you can get into their vibe, Death's last four records will leave you different than when they found you. I can only think of a handful of bands that changed me like Death changed me, and they also are one of the very few metal bands to have done that on that list.

[@newwaveinfantry8362]

A moment of clarity is the best solo in Death's history. I can't believe everyone forgets about it. It's also the last song Chuck ever wrote.

Definitely an amazing song and my favorite Death song but not the last song Chuck ever wrote. It was the last song on the last Death album but Chuck had another band called Control Denied where he wrote all the songs. The first Control Denied album was released after The Sound of Perseverance, and the last songs that Chuck ever wrote were demos for the second Control Denied album which was never finished since Chuck died.

The drummer of the first Death album created a band called Autopsy which some people call the black sabbath of death metal, (not to say they're the most influential) mostly because its one of the bigger first Doom/death metal band with a more focus on death metal.

[@jonathanhenderson9422]

1. The Sound of Perseverance (Their proggiest. Those whiplash changes serve their purpose of being the "punch you in the jaw" metal moments. Also their most emotionally draining album. A flat-out masterpiece) 2. Symbolic (Barely a notch behind TSOP. On a given day I could rank it 1. The songwriting is "smoother," but I don't know how much of a positive quality that is. Still some of the bands best riffs and solos). 3. Human (The best blend of their early DM and later prog styles. In its own way just as influential as Scream Bloody Gore. Amazing the same band was able to innovate two different genres in such a short career). 4. Individual Thought Patterns (Pushes the progginess of Human farther but loses some of its, well, human/emotional touches... but not much. Still an amazing album and outside of TSOP maybe their most technically proficient). 5. Leprosy (The perfection of their early DM sound. I understand why Chuck wanted to change it up after this as I don't think he had much chance of bettering this attempt at "pure DM.") 6. Spiritual Healing (A transitional album for sure, with the band experimenting with new prog styles but not yet having figured out to merge them with their older, heavier style. Still a really solid first attempt). 7. Scream Bloody Gore (I get why DM purists love it, but it is, indeed, very monotonous; still surprisingly catchy by DM standards, but the band was destined for better).

One of the best discographies in metal history, if not the best, it's impressive how on every album you can hear Chuck improving, not only as a guitarist, but also as a writer and composer, it's so satisfying because most bands hit a certain peak and never get to that level again (looking at you Metallica), but Chuck never stopped growing and challenging himself to improve, i highly doubt we will ever see such a legendary figure like him in metal again

SYMBOLIC DOES NOT FLUCTUATE THE TEMPO. The wonky feel comes from the drums playing halftime vs. normal time.

[@BradleyHallGuitar]

The tempo is 100% fluctuating on that bit, but it was probably intentional

[@juliusalbe2070]

@@BradleyHallGuitar i don't think so. Put a click over it, or just tap along. Tempo does not change. Unless the halftime beat counts as a fluctuation of tempo, then i just messed up the meaning of the words.

Half time vs normal time doesn't sound wonky without a variation in tempo

[@j.r.huffnstuff3549]

Thank you for your selfless sacrifice, good Sir Bradley. I will now listen to every Death record in order.

[@DarthVengeant]

You are nuts. Spiritual Healing is my fav Death album. Living Monstrosity is one of my fav Death songs.

[@simondavies109]

I thought Human was bloody amazing when I bought it in 1991 and it has since grown on me.

[@whiteglovepc]

Individual Thought Patterns is objectively the best

[@kirkham4]

In the livestream Bradley then did his own opinions, and put Perseverance and Spiritual Healing in GET IN THE BIN tier.

Baked beans are a dish traditionally containing white common beans that are parboiled and then, in the US, baked in sauce at low temperature for a lengthy period.[1] Canned baked beans are not baked, but are cooked through a steam process.[2] Baked beans occurred in Native American cuisine, and are made from beans indigenous to the Americas.[3] It is thought that the dish was adopted and adapted by English colonists in New England in the 17th century and, through cookbooks published in the 19th century, spread to other regions of the United States and into Canada.[3] However, the connection to Native American cuisine may be apocryphal, as legumes such as broad beans and lentils prepared in various sauces had been established in European cuisine long before the Middle Ages. Today, in the New England region of the United States, a variety of indigenous legumes are used in restaurants or in the home, such as Jacob's cattle, soldier beans, yellow-eyed beans, and navy beans (also known as native beans).[3] Originally, Native Americans sweetened baked beans with maple syrup, a tradition some recipes still follow, but some English colonists used brown sugar beginning in the 17th century. In the 18th century, the convention of using American-made molasses as a sweetening agent became increasingly popular to avoid British taxes on sugar. Boston baked beans use a sauce prepared with molasses and salt pork, a dish whose popularity has given Boston the nickname "Beantown".[4] Today, baked beans are served throughout the United States alongside barbecue foods and at picnics. Beans in a brown sugar, sugar, or corn syrup sauce (with or without tomatoes) are widely available throughout the United States. Bush Brothers are the largest producer.[5] After the American Revolutionary War, Independence Day celebrations often included baked beans.[6] Canned baked beans are used as a convenience food; most are made from haricot beans in sauce. They may be eaten hot or cold, and straight from the can, as they are fully cooked.[7] H. J. Heinz began producing canned baked beans in 1886. In the early 20th century, canned baked beans gained international popularity, particularly in the United Kingdom, where they have become a common part of an English full breakfast. Origins and history in the Americas edit Three beanpots used for cooking homemade baked beans. The small one is glazed with the letters "Boston Baked Beans". According to chef and food historian Walter Staib of Philadelphia's City Tavern, baked beans had their roots as a Native peoples dish in the Americas long before the dish became known to Western culture.[8] In the northeast of America various Native American peoples, including the Iroquois, the Narragansett and the Penobscot,[9] mixed beans, maple sugar, and bear fat in earthenware pots which they placed in pits called "bean holes" which were lined in hot rocks to cook slowly over a long period of time.[8][10] British colonists in New England were the first westerners to adopt the dish from the Native peoples, and were quick to embrace it largely because the dish was reminiscent of pease pudding and because the dish used ingredients native to the New World.[8][11] They substituted molasses or sugar for the maple syrup, bacon or ham for the bear fat, and simmered their beans for hours in pots over the fire instead of underground.[8] Each colony in America had its own regional variations of the dish, with navy or white pea beans used in Massachusetts, Jacob's Cattle and soldier beans used in Maine, and yellow-eyed beans in Vermont.[3] This variation likely resulted from the colonists receiving the dish from different Native peoples who used different native beans.[3] While some historians have theorized that baked beans had originated from the cassoulet or bean stew tradition in Southern France, this is unlikely as the beans used to make baked beans are all native to North America and were introduced to Europe around 1528.[12] However, it is likely that English colonists used their knowledge of cassoulet cooking to modify the cooking technique of the beans from the traditional Native American version, by soaking the bean overnight and simmering the beans over a fire before baking it in earthen pots in order to decrease the cooking time.[13] A dish which was a clear precursor to baked beans, entitled "beans and bacon", was known in medieval England.[14] The addition of onion and mustard to some baked beans recipes published in New England in the 19th century was likely based on traditional cassoulet recipes from Staffordshire, England, which utilized mustard, beans, and leeks.[13] These ingredients are still often added to baked beans today.[13] Nineteenth-century cookbooks published in New England, spread to other portions of the United States and Canada, which familiarized other people with the dish.[13] While many recipes today are stewed, traditionally dried beans were soaked overnight, simmered until tender (parboiled), and then slow-baked in a ceramic or cast-iron beanpot.[3] Originally baked beans were sweetened with maple syrup by Native Americans, a tradition some recipes still follow, but some English colonists modified the sweetening agent to brown sugar beginning in the 17th century.[14] In the 18th century the convention of using American made molasses as a sweetening agent became increasingly popular in order to avoid British taxes on sugar.[14] The molasses style of baked beans has become closely associated with the city of Boston and is often referred to as Boston baked beans.[15] Today in the New England region, baked beans are flavored either with maple syrup (Northern New England), or with molasses (Boston), and are traditionally cooked with salt pork in a beanpot in a brick oven for six to eight hours.[15] In the absence of a brick oven, the beans were cooked in a beanpot nestled in a bed of embers placed near the outer edges of a hearth, about a foot away from the fire. Today, baked beans can be made in a slow cooker or in a modern oven using a traditional beanpot, Dutch oven, or casserole dish.[13] Regardless of cooking method, the results of the dish, commonly described as having a savory-sweet flavor and a brownish- or reddish-tinted white bean, are the same.[8] A tradition in Maine of "bean hole" cooking may have originated with the native Penobscot people and was later practiced in logging camps. A fire would be made in a stone-lined pit and allowed to burn down to hot coals, and then a pot with 11[16] pounds of seasoned beans would be placed in the ashes, covered over with dirt, and left to cook overnight or longer. These beans were a staple of Maine's logging camps, served at every meal.[17][18] Baked beans made with BBQ sauce, brown sugar, cider vinegar, Dijon mustard and sliced bacon While baked beans was initially a New England region cuisine, the dish has become a popular item throughout the United States; and is now a staple item served most frequently along various types of barbecue and at picnics.[19] This is due in part to the ease of handling, as they can be served hot or cold, directly from the can, making them handy for outdoor eating. The tomato-based sweet sauce also complements many types of barbecue. The already-cooked beans may also be baked in a casserole dish topped with slices of raw bacon, which is baked until the bacon is cooked. Additional seasonings are sometimes used, such as additional brown sugar or mustard to make the sauce more tangy.[7] Canned beans Canned beans, often containing pork, were among the first convenience foods, and were exported and popularised by U.S. companies internationally in the early 20th century.[20] The American Food and Drug Administration stated in 1996: "It has for years been recognized by consumers generally that the designation 'beans with pork,' or 'pork and beans' is the common or usual name for an article of commerce that contains very little pork." The included pork is typically a piece of salt pork that adds fat to the dish.[21] The first mass-produced commercial canning of baked beans in the United States began in 1895 by the Pennsylvania-based H. J. Heinz Company.[5] Heinz was also the first company to sell baked beans outside of the United States, beginning with sales limited solely to Fortnum & Mason in 1886, when the item was considered a luxury.[22] They began selling baked beans throughout the UK in 1901, and baked beans became a standard part of the English full breakfast soon after.[5] Heinz removed pork from the product during the Second World War rationing.[23] Baked beans on sourdough toast, served in a café in London, England Originally, Heinz Baked Beans were prepared in the traditional United States manner for sales in Ireland and Great Britain. Over time, the recipe was altered to a less sweet tomato sauce without maple syrup, molasses, or brown sugar to appeal to the tastes of the United Kingdom.[20] This is the version of baked beans most commonly eaten outside of the United States. Baked beans are commonly eaten on toast ("beans on toast") or as part of a full breakfast.[20] Heinz Baked Beans remains the best-selling brand in the UK.[24] The Baked Bean Museum of Excellence in Port Talbot, Wales, is dedicated to baked beans.[25] In 2002, the British Dietetic Association allowed manufacturers of canned baked beans to advertise the product as contributing to the recommended daily consumption of five to six vegetables per person. This concession was criticised by heart specialists, who pointed to the high levels of sugar and salt in the product. However, it has been proven that consumption of baked beans does indeed lower total cholesterol levels and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, even in normo-cholesterolaemic individuals.[26][27] Some manufacturers produce a "healthy" version of the product with reduced levels of sugar and salt.[28]

The Sound Of Perseverance was meant to be a Control Denied album, but the record company forced Chuck to release it as a Death album. (And it's worse than The Fragile Art Of Existence imho.)

[@henrywalton5967]

Only 3 or 4 of the songs were Control Denied ones, not the entire album

[@-grey]

Great album though.

[@leftyzappa]

We all should listen to every Death album. That way we don’t miss out. 😊

[@inkarn8915]

Why would I not want to listen to every Death album?

[@seanmorgan9020]

Control Denied was where Sound was heading, great album and more coherent.
