Description:

"Most of the great progressive underground bands of the '90s would not exist if it weren't for them." - Ben Weinman, lead guitarist & primary songwriter of The Dillinger Escape Plan. Was DAZZLING KILLMEN a hardcore band? A metal band? The worldâ??s gnarliest progressive-rock quartet? "Yes" is the easy answer, but only because it's easy to rewind through two decades of genre fragmentation to hear Dazzling Killmen's influence on any number of "math-metal," "prog-core" and similarly classified bands. At the time, however, this St. Louis quartet occupied a genre of one. When SKiN GRAFT released the Killmen's 1994 sophomore album, "Face of Collapse", that genre had its touchstone." - Excerpt from Aaron Burgess' liner notes "One of the best post-metal records ever made". - Fact Magazine "The band formed in the St. Louis, MO area, and forged its singular sound with almost no music scene support for such a fringy concept - technically impeccable playing enabling whiplash stop-starts that recalled John Zornâ??s Naked City more readily than any rock group one could name, cathartic and discordant guitar stabs, a jaw-dropping rhythm section, arrangements of baroque complexity, and a harrowing, overbearing, inescapable sense of pure dread". - Dangerous Minds Loud Life at Alternative Press magazine declared it the top album of the 90's based on the following criteria: 1) Avoidance of formula or clichÃ©. 2) Dexterity of rhythm section, 3) Quality of album's production values, 4) Lack of predictable lyrical subjects - Satan, Straightedge, Viking folklore, etc. "Sounds like Dave Bruebeck's Time Out played through Carcass' PA system." Remastered from the original analog tapes and packaged in a deluxe six panel Digipack with a 16 page booklet of liner notes, interviews and comics. Includes three non-LP bonus tracks. Collects every studio track recorded by the quartet version of the band. - .. COLLAPSE/ 16PG. BOOKLET
