Heaviness in music is a very difficult thing to measure. It’s basically purely subjective. Everybody you ask will have a different answer. If you measure heaviness by pure, unfiltered raw anger, Iowa by Slipknot would be a respectable answer. If you measure heaviness by sonic, sound heaviness, maybe something like Tomb of the Mutilated by Cannibal Corpse would be more like it. Either way, let’s all enjoy heavy music together, no matter what the band might be… heavy music is what brings us all together.

The Cleansing is still one of my all time favorite deathcore records. I’m not a big fan of modern deathcore at all, which is why I resonate with Alex when he said the song structure is simple and perfect. That record kicks ass front to back. The muddy sound from the distortion in the guitars, the can sounding snare, Mitch’s vocals…. This thing had it all in one. No record has gotten close to being this fucking heavy ever since. Not in the energy, pace, and simplicity SS did it. Favorite song is for sure Girl of Glass. And Myke Terry did justice to it during the memorial show

It's so subjective. I change my mind all the time. To me it is always an early grindcore or deathmetal album from the late 80's or early 90's though. Nothing is better or heavier to this day... In my opinion.

How much I love Suicide Silience, Alex is blowing smoke op Garza's ass, there is plenty of Death Metal bands who made far more iconic and heavier albums than The Cleansing xD Go listen to 'Nightmares Made Flesh' by Bloodbath or 'Malice' by Through the Eyes of the Dead, those are who heavier and in my opinion, more technical, than Suicide Silence ever will be, but I guess thats comparing 'real' death metal with 'death core' . But Suicide Silence was definitely not the first band who 'brought it in your face' .

One of my greatest memories of my entire metal “career” so to speak, is moshing to the cleansing album (alone in my backyard) On my MP3 At 5 AM right after getting off work at Wendy’s Night Shift and smoking a whole joint by myself. That was a personal tradition I had for about a year when I was 16. I don’t smoke weed anymore and I don’t really listen to too much metal but Suicide Silence has a special place in my heart and that’s a top memory of my teen years

The first time I understood suicide silence my waterpolo coach in high school decided he was tired of seeing me wearing exodus shirts and that I needed to like hardcore. He showed me the cleansing and my jaw dropped as soon as unanswered kicked in. A few weeks later he told me about a hatebreed concert and I went and never looked back. By the time I graduated I was moshing at underground slam and beat down shows

Luckily, I was at one of those Rockstar Energy festivals, shown in the music video with the freestyle motocross show on the side, while Suicide Silence was playing. Sid from Slipknot was doing a DJ set by himself in a wheelchair (I think he had a broken leg or something).. there were so many good bands playing in one day, It was awesome.
