Featuring the band's first four full length studio albums released via Roadrunner Records which helped define the genre and are widely regarded as classics to this day. CD 1 features their 1989 debut album 'Slowly We Rot', originally released via Roadrunner imprint RC Records, while CD 2 features the classic follow up 'Cause of Death', originally released in 1990. Additionally, the third disc features the band's 1992 breakthrough full length 'The End Complete', while CD 4 showcases the more experimental 1994 release 'World Demise'. Formed in 1984 in Tampa, Florida, originally under the name Executioner, the band created a style that was characterized with dense groove based detuned riffs and the inhuman howl of frontman John Tardy. On early recordings Tardy dispensed with language entirely for his vocal approach, and instead made guttural, indecipherable noises that fit the music perfectly. Inspired by local heroes like Nasty Savage and Savatage, as well as the primitive approach of Hellhammer\/Celtic Frost, Obituary made an instant impact and reached a global audience via their appearance (under the name 'Xecutioner') on the Godly Records seminal 'Raging Death' compilation in 1987. Their debut album 'Slowly We Rot' blew minds everywhere, pushing the death metal envelope further with the brutality of the vocal approach and the intensity of the music. However, the follow up 'Cause of Death' (bolstered by the addition of guitar whizzkid James Murphy to the ranks) raised the bar with a superior production, iconic artwork and a dark atmosphere permeating tracks like 'Chopped In Half' and 'Turned Inside Out'. Having toured internationally, the band released their third album 'The End Complete' in 1992 and continued their ascent, selling over 100,000 copies of the record in the US alone. By the time of 1994's 'World Demise', the band were experimenting with less horror fixated topics and adding an industrial tinge to their sound. This release is complimented with the addition of liner notes from writer David Gehlke, who has written Turned Inside Out, the official biography of Obituary. Housed in a sturdy slipcase box, the CDs are replicated jewel case versions of the original pressings (with additional bonus tracks) and are complimented by four reproduction postcards featuring classic images of the band.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInternal Bleeding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGodly Beings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e'Til Death\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlowly We Rot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImmortal Visions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGates to Hell\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWords of Evil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuffocation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntoxicated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeadly Intentions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBloodsoaked\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStinkpuss\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFind the Arise (Demo Version)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLike the Dead (Demo Version)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInfected\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody Bag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChopped in Half\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCircle of the Tyrants\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDying\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFind the Arise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCause of Death\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMemories Remain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTurned Inside Out\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInfected (Demo)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMemories Remain (Demo)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChopped in Half (Demo)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI'm in Pain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBack to One\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDead Silence\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn the End of Life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSickness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCorrosive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKilling Time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe End Complete\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRotting Ways\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI'm in Pain (Live)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKilling Time (Live)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDon't Care\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorld Demise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBurned in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRedefine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eParalyzing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLost\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid State\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSplattered\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinal Thoughts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoiling Point\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSet in Stone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKill for Me\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKilling Victims Found\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInfected (Live)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGodly Beings (Live)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody Bag (Live)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuried Alive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoiling Point (212' Sporadic Mix)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5013929025264\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e DISSONANCE\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8.15.25\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e CD\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"IMPORT VENDOR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51090493505838,"sku":"n5013929025264","price":54.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0803\/7856\/0814\/files\/4429657-3397447.jpg?v=1758214721","url":"https:\/\/parkavecds.shop\/products\/obituary-godly-beings-deluxe-boxset-box-deluxe-uk","provider":"Park Ave CDs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
