Product description
On this, their seventh full-length so far, the Florida-based band goes back to the roots, leaving behind the slight experimentation of recent efforts and reminding us why their 1995 debut "Haunted" is still an undisputed classic of groove-laden Florida death metal, even 12 years after its release. SIX FEET UNDER crush the listener mercilessly, riff after riff, while Chris Barnes leaves no doubt that his inhuman throat is second to none in this style of music!
Bassist Terry Butler comments: "I would say, if I had to describe the new style, it would be 'Maximum Violence' meets 'Haunted'. I think SFU fans are going to like it a lot, especially some of the older, the people who've been around for a long time listening to us, it will satisfy them. I think this is kind of back to what our fans would expect."
The Ten Commandments of Death Metal are the result, a rule which will have to be obeyed by absolutely everyone following the release of "Commandment"! (Source: Metal Blade Records)

by Björn Thorsten Jaschinski (10.04.2007) No experiments on the seventh studio album of the groove-kings. In fact, it seems as if the 35 minutes would be more old school than Six Feet Under has always been, anyway. The short "Zombie executioner" is as reduced and direct as the early massacre-killers, and also "The edge of the hatchet" is stamped by the simple Punk beat that we've come to know from many early Death Metal records of the 80s. Sometimes you almost think that Allen West (Obituary) would still be in the band. And Chris Barnes is right, of course: his danceable "Thou shall kill" is worlds apart from the killer song of the same name which Malevolent Creation released on their "The ten commandments" album 15 years ago. The riffs, that seems the current directive, have to be absolutely classic - "Bled to death" probably leaves Steve Swanson unchallenged. On this basis, Barnes is best with his unmistakable vocal sounds. Swanson's satisfaction and room to move is provided in the always short but edgy solos. Killer: the demanding "In a vacant grave".
