we all know how deadly "the key " is but i think "thresholds"is deadly too
the production lets it down but otherwise its a great album full of progressive death metal ,i cant see any flaw at all |

One of the most important albums in the history of US death metal.
Demo will be reissued on NWN in 2013. Mike Browning found the original reel or DAT so he's going to master it for vinyl from the real deal. Forget about that shitty CD that came out some years ago. That was taken from a dubbed cassette tape with inferior sound quality. _________________ Your opinion is as insignificant as your existence.

The demos and The Key are the best they ever did. _________________

Fuckin' love Thresholds. Everytime I see a copy it's like $70-80
Have had The Key forever... Killer and still underrated. Listen to both albums constantly.
Demo reish would be welcome... _________________ http://www.20buckspin.com |

| I might slightly prefer Thresholds over The Key...I've always wondered if it's a bass getting slapped at the start of Subterranean Infiltrator.. |

I like Thresholds more than The Key, and it also has their best song: Arctic Crypt. _________________ Planet Earth is great to visit but you wouldn't want to live there |

have sold the wax somewhere in 95 or 96 (or traded, don't remember). nevertheless, would be a fine score for nostalgic reasons as the songs are great, although the pronunciation of the vocalist was a bit annoying ...  |

I got the vinyl for something like €10 at a fair in Utrecht a couple of years ago. Love it. Climate controller is brilliant. _________________ In Fear and Flame and Death! |
