[@Chuloloc]

Awesome. A hundred million thanks for posting the video. Really appreciated. One of death metal's most underrated bands. Too bad they didn't play Upon The Uncreation and Valley Of Thorns but any Oppressor show is a good show. Hail Oppressor.

[@lecturehc]

The mentioning of bands such as Gorguts, Cryptopsy, Nile and tour buddies Deeds of Flesh sums up the best of the late 90's tech death period perfectly. The albums of that period (From Wisdom to Hate, Whisper Supremacy, Among the Catacombs of Nephren-Ka, Inbreeding The Anthropophagi and of couse Elements of Corrosion) from these aforementioned bands lifted and solidified the standard of the genre to a certain height that was never attained again, even by those bands themselves. Frankly, I think those albums cannot be topped. There is nowhere to go beyond that. That's why death metal fell into regression and degeneration in the 2000's. Those classics of the late 90's are way too perfect. Everything that can be done was already done on a much higher level 20 years ago.

[@NocturnoVision]

Oppressor rules , beers from Chile!!, this is a jewel!!!

[@mattjb5879]

One of the underrated death metal bands of the 90s A generally adventurous approach to writing music. Elements of Corrosion - my favorite album 👺🤘🤘

[@whalesmiff5712]

I heard these guys in the late 90s, and to this day.. they're still unmatched in death metal composition.. Sad they broke up.

[@svobodasimon1185]

another band i did not know despite the fact that i listen love and buy metal since years. so many underground gems in this genre only from all over the world

[@KevinFrasard]

Goddamn man, Jim can down pick his ass off!!!

[@joeyuzwa891]

Of course you of all people would know these guys. Great taste as always, Kevin lol

[@anthonyperkins5856]

[@chuckp342]

Jim Stopper. He was friggin sick live. I miss 90's dm

[@anthonyperkins5856]

dang right

[@joshrowell95]

Jim Stopper was the shit!

[@PawelSorinsky]

Very tight and technically accomplished.

[@whalesmiff5712]

..and to this day... Jim Stopper cannot be stopped...

[@whalesmiff5712]

I never realized listening to Elements of Corrosion that it was all Jim Stopper.. The whole time... Amazing musician!

[@chuckp342]

​@@whalesmiff5712bro he was such a beast. Crazy energy during a live show.

[@eartheternal3565]

I'm glad this exists! They were great live.

[@iamizandesathanos568]

OPPRESSOR !!! 🤘👹🤘🔥🔥🔥

[@the72u7h4]

We went on after them, before CC. I asked them a bunch of questions from lead singer "Dude I worked and still do in a record store" The dude on the right, I went to take a leak and had a conversation about his Ibanez guitar frets. How they were 'so smooth, the best dude'. I agree.

[@MoreBud-Angel]

What band were you in?

[@royalblueroses3792]

Thank you for posting this!! 😍 watching this as my bedtime lullaby now lol

[@Luvenhart]

How did you get into this shit anyway?

[@royalblueroses3792]

Luvenhart I got the agony cd years ago as a teenager, used to listen to it non stop on repeat

[@Luvenhart]

lndigo XoXo oh, that's really cool then

[@chuckp342]

These guys were so fucking sick and Stopper had so much energy 🤘. Fortunate to see them during this era.

[@johngavalas74]

Ah my hometown boys and the band that got me into Death Metal when i heard And The Angel Fell (The Suffering) i was blown the fuck away!

[@thenext9537]

I don't know the guys name on the right, but met him in the bathroom of all places. I said love your guitar and I play it high up like that too. He said "Ya man that's great". That's it lol. I also met Tim (singer), he said he was working in a record store "Not much money in death metal man" is what he said to me.

[@jumpfart666]

Hey look its Soil hahahah

[@paulknowles6433]

That's the most insane pit I've ever seen!!!

[@carlos4558]

awesome band kick ass sound

[@PropagandrejMinister]

DEATH METAL GODS

[@grindcorizer6818]

what date was this show and who shared the stage with them that night?

[@dmitriysakhonchik1825]

Cool time

[@chaoswr]

This crowd doesn't deserve such good performance.

[@hauntedbydemons]

Anyone know ms their tuning ,is it drop A? thanks in advance🤘

[@099_fahrezirafid8]

Same stage with Gorguts

[@lovecraftmusic8717]

what year is this?

[@James-gq9sd]

got to be around 98' if he says this is off our 'new' album, just a guess though

[@Trash666Molinari]

do caralhoo

[@corrado]

no Looks that Kill?

[@azeloliver3780]

What year was this??

[@ilcazzone100]

1998!

[@todessehnsucht]

cant hear bass

[@lecturehc]

There's more bass here in this live show than on Elements of Corrosion album, but yeah I get what you mean. They never had a very up-front, clear bass tone. The guitar player on the right has a very muffled tone as well, so that makes up for a lot of low end punch. Still, I don't miss an up-front bass all that much, craziness of the guitar more than compensates for it. What a band they were, one of my fave classic US death metal bands. They really should have been bigger.

[@doomorbedoomed8748]

I fucking miss these guys. It's a shame Tim King sold out. Soil blows.

[@psychedelicfright85]

I felt like I'd been hit with a hammer when I discovered this was band... became Soil... minus Jim.

[@psychedelicfright85]

To update: Tim returned to death metal. Embryonic Autopsy.

[@doomorbedoomed8748]

@@psychedelicfright85 yeah. I heard it last year. Not terribly impressive.

[@eartheternal3565]

I just remembered how much I hated the Whiskey. Such bad energy.

[@ryanbillings3605]

What a lame crowd

[@Morbid.Thrasher]

Lmao its L.A haha

[@hugoman21]

ik right😂😂

[@milosadler5745]

Is this even singing

[@mardukdemigod1523]

Milo Sadler Its Growling. Death Metal dont sing.

[@joiem1634]

Milo Sadler Newbie

[@mvunit3]

Milo - its what makes "Death Metal", its indicative of the "subgenre" of Metal. If you want to hear Metal that is just as heavy (sort of), listen to "Nevermore", Warrel Dane is an amazing vocalist, though he died this year in 2018 to our collective sadness :(.

[@dc4284]

They're going way way too fast.

[@joeyuzwa891]

How did you even get suggested this video if you know so little about this style of music that you’re asking those sorts of questions
