| | Description: | The debut album from Celtic Frost was released in 1984 and was quickly recognised as the work of agitated and agitating talents. This album was a huge influence on the burgeoning death and thrash scenes at the time. A masterclass of riff tirades and unholy sentiments. This reissue includes rehearsals from 1984 and the concept and art direction of the release was done by the man behind Celtic Frost, Tom G. Warrior. It almost seems churlish to regard Celtic Frost as one of the great extreme metal bands, because they were so much more than that. Itâ??s better to hail them as among the finest extreme and experimental bands of the 1980s. Refusing ever to do what was expected or demanded, the band constantly changed musical direction, always brought in surprising influences, and kept people guessing as to where they might venture next. Their catalogue of albums is formidable and unmatched. Each is not only unique, but part of an entire tapestry that only now can be appreciated for being a remarkable part of music history. Despite, or maybe because of, constant turmoil on so many fronts, Celtic Frost achieved an artistic level few others would even have dared to dream of aspiring towards. They climbed high because they were never afraid to fall, which is why the band are now rightly regarded as icons, and iconoclasts. - Hype sticker over shrink wrap:

Azmi H. - 17/Oct/2022  Celtic Frost is a great band and very important to the metal scene, the EP is great, there are the roots of what will become later on "To Mega Therion", great vocals, great riffs, dark sound.
|  | | Alexander S. - 14/Feb/2021 Despite the times, Celtic Frost remains the best with its first EPs "Morbid Tales / Emperor's Return".
Rubbing, already bringing teeth, thrash-black-death rough, gloomy and murderous, striking the imagination with its primordial power and hellish aesthetics. It was with "Morbid Tales" that death-metal began its march in the form of a hit of all times and peoples "Dethroned Emperor". You can paint this mess for a long time, but it's easier to list the bands that replayed these songs:
Obituary & Opeth - “Circle of the Tyrants”, Sepultura & Enslaved - “Procreation (of the Wicked), Benediction -“ Return to the Eve ”, Mayhem -“ Visual Aggression ”, Anthrax -“ Into the Crypt of Rays ”and“ Dethroned Emperor ”(live with Phil Anselmo), Vital Remains, etc.
