SOLSTICE - SELF-TITLED (1992)



Another one of those great early 90's Floridian Death Metal bands that should have made it, but didn't (see also: Resurrection). Maybe it was a case of too little, too late, but Solstice is some truly RIPPIN' shit, and deserves to be remembered with the "big names" of the Florida DM scene. Solstice got the shaft. Weak.

Added bonus: Cover by the infamous thrash metal artist Ed Repka, who jumps the subgenre shark and does a cover for a Death Metal band for once. Crazy.

These guys always kind of lived in the shadow of Malevolent Creation and I think they even shared some members, but yeah it's a passable album. Now Resurrection were awesome but failed by putting those ridiculous intro bits on every song on their album.

Yeah, those Resurrection intros are a goddamn shame
