Hard to say. Embrace the Death is utter darkness, The Rack has a perfect flow, Last One on Earth is epicness incarnate, and the self-titled is every bit as energetic and infectious as Like an Everflowing Stream. The self-titled has been getting tons of love lately from me over the past month, so I'm tempted to choose it, but overall I'd have to say The Rack has the most staying power out of all their albums when taken as a whole. |

Don't know who "Thin Air" is, but he's a lucky man. |

It's silly to mindlessly stick with only favoring a band's first album. Asphyx is one of the few bands that consistently put out good shit with few slip ups. They developed into a much heavier band with better songs in the couple albums after the Rack. I know I'm in the minority but still... |

You ain´t! This + they could CHANGE THEIR GODDAMN SETLIST already. I want to hear songs from the s/t live for example, or the Embrace of Death Record.....or some Soulburn ones!!!! i mean, come on, what is this whole "Van drunen era only" reducing anyways?! |

Sometimes I feel bad for you around here, then you say something brazenly retarded like this.
Last One on Earth > 99% of death metal |

It's between Last One on Earth and Embrace the Death for me. I chose EtD to get the vote up a little bit for it though. |
