TODAY, BUT IN 1991: SUFFOCATION RELEASE "EFFIGY OF THE FORGOTTEN"

 

On October 8th, 1991, death metal masters SUFFOCATION released their classic album "Effigy of the Forgotten". The album, released at that time through R/C Records, was SUFFOCATION´s debut album, and the successor to their classic brutal EP "Human Waste". The sound in the album is brutal and more compact than on the EP and is a good preview of what SUFFOCATION would become on the following albums. The line-up that recorded "Effigy..." was: Frank Mullen on Vocals; Terrance Hobbs on Guitars; Doug Cerrito on Guitars; Josh Barohn on Bass and Mike Smith on Drums. The album was recorded and mixed at the famous Morrisound Recording studios in Tampa and is dedicated to the memory of late ATHEIST bassist Roger Patterson.
