Death's second album "Leprosy" is one of the milestones of the death metal genre! This reissue deals with Death's second album from 1988. This masterpiece combines the thrash sound of Metallica and Slayer, but adds a previously unseen raw extremity that is incredibly brutal and straightforward. These eight tracks form the roots of an entire genre: death metal. And although this was only the second Death album, it immediately cemented Chuck Schuldiner's band's exceptional position in the entire heavy metal scene. For the recording of "Leprosy", band leader Schuldiner changed the complete line-up, the songs were more matureSchuldiner's technical, musical skills had clearly improved, and he even dared to play a few very effective solos. The crushing guitar sound in "Scream Bloody Gore" gave way to an overall clearer and darker sound, aided by a much stronger drum kit. The songs have an almost optimal blend of complexity and catchiness. The re-release on Relapse was done with great care, with the entire album and bonus tracks mastered by Alan Douches (Mastodon, Nile, etc.).
