LOVE GUN
Another “live in studio” effort that would be the album KISS’ tour would revolve around on the band’s first excursion into Japan.

“Vomit The Soul” is the 5th song off of Cannibal Corpse infamous album “Butchered at Birth”. This is classic death metal at it’s best. The album in general is genre defining, considering their albums released before this point of time had more thrash metal roots, I think with Butchered …
