Someone else out there might release an album as good as 'Formulas Fatal To The Flesh' this year, but I'm not going to hold my breath waiting for it to happen." -TERRORIZER (February 1998) (Europe) "...the musical brilliance has been left unscathed. Their new opus shows not only a more chaotic and brutal Morbid Angel, but also a more focused one." -PIT (April 1998) (U.S. National) "Morbid Angel rebounds with an album that draws from the rawness of 'Altars Of Madness' (1989), the concept structure of 'Blessed Are The Sick' (1991), and the strong songwriting of 'Covenant' (1993)." -CHICAGO TRIBUNE (Friday, March 20, 1998) (Chicago, IL) "One of the most skull-scrambling, brilliant death metal records of all time." -MEAN STREET (March 1998) (Los Angeles, CA) "...the best metal release thusfar in 1998." -LOLLIPOP (April 1998) (Boston, MA) "Morbid Angel are more relevant and more powerful than ever..." -GLASS EYE (March 1998) (Toledo, OH) "Undoubtedly the old-school death metal album of the year." -EXCLAIM! (March 1998) (Canada) "...a well-crafted album that equals their reputation." -US ROCKER (March 1998) (Cleveland, OH) "Formulas Fatal To The Flesh...one of 1998's strongest thusfar." -THE MUSIC MONITOR (March 1998) (Raleigh, NC) "Throw away all your rudimentary, dour misconceptions...this band is for real." -BRAVE WORDS & BLOODY KNUCKLES (Feb./Mar. 1998) (Canada) "...one of the most brutal and furious bands on the planet...death metal at its finest." -VICE (March 1998) (Canada) "Metal fans will speak of this record for years to come." -ETCH (May 1998) (Lansing, MI) "Heaviest grooves of the year?" -BIZARRE DOMINATION (April 1998) (Carlisle, PA) "Morbid Angel's latest release has hurled extreme metal fans into a full-blown fury." -UNIVERCITY (April 1998) (New York, NY) "...one of the heaviest albums to come out in the past couple of years..." -THE SPECTRUM (March 1998) (Buffalo, NY) "...their most progressive and creative since Altars Of Madness... grab this one." -GOOD TIMES (February 1998) (Long Island, NY) "Easily the best Morbid Angel record to date." -THE CRASS MENAGERIE (Jan. 20, 1998) (Utah) "...one of the few that produce imaginative, good death metal." -BABYSUE MUSIC REVUE (March 1998) (Internet-based) "Quintessential. Powerful. Masterful. Legendary." -UNRESTRAINED (#4 March 1998) (Canada) "Back with incredible death." -HAMMERHEAD (April 1998) (Edison, NJ) "This is one of those "must have" CDs..." -THE NEW BREED (March 1998) (Piqua, OH) "This is Morbid Angel's most awe-inspiring album and will leave fans floored and stunned at the quality of musicianship." -DA CORE (March 1998) (Mckees Rock, PA) |
