This is a compilation CD with songs coming from all of Obituary´s releases (except from the live album). Some of the songs here have been remastered and have a better sound than in their original versions (specially the ones from the "Slowly We Rot" album which had a rather primitive sound). Here we also have some difficult to find tracks like "Find the Arise" a 1986 demo from the beginnings of the band when they were called Xecutioner. We also have here "Buried Alive" and "Boiling Point (212º Sporadic Mix)" which are unreleased tracks that can be listened here for the first time. A must for Obituary fans. 

Favorite tracks: "Slowly We Rot", "Chopped in Half" and "The End Complete"
