Opprobrium New Orleans, Louisiana
"Louisiana's first-ever death metal band."
Back in mid-1982, Moyses M. Howard (drums) and Francis M.
Howard (guitar, vocals) moved from their native Rio de Janeiro, Brazil with their parents and settled down in New Orleans, USA. The band took interest in the newer underground metal and hardcore bands in the mid-80's, released a number of highly-regarded albums, and is still active today.

I just found these guys and after celebrating Fearsick I immediately came here and had to buy this as well. It might eben be better than Fearsick but who cares. Both are phenomenally good. Old schoolish perfection with powerful modern production. Every song is a fucking killer.

Distilled death metal with catchy riffs and well written songs. It's not reinventing the wheel or anything but it's osdm, if that's what you want look elsewhere.

Pretty much the best Black/Speed Metal I've listened to since I learned about Evil Invaders and Vulture. Everything you'd love to be reminded of about this musical era is there. The influences are what you'd expect too: Motörhead, Venom, Bathory, early Slayer, Celtic Frost; aggressive vocals, tortured guitar solos, pounding drums; everything is fast, clear and still a little grimy, but without reverb cranked up to the max. Amazing band, amazing album.
