Album Notes & Community Reviews

'Dawn of Possession' is an incredibly heavy and blasphemous cornerstone of the New York death metal underground. Immolation engineers a deeply dark, infernal atmosphere built upon aggressive tremolo picking, complex time changes, and intensely anti-religious, misanthropic vocals.
