THE 1992 DEBUT OF PULVERISING DEATH METAL FROM BUFFALO�s BAPHOMET PRESENTED ON VINYL
Baphomet was formed in Buffalo, New York in 1987, and belonged to the early prolific generation of US death metal, beginning with their �Morbid Realities� demo in 1989.
�The Dead Shall Inherit� was Baphomet�s debut album, and was originally released by Peaceville imprint Deaf Records in 1992. This album is revered as a cult classic of pulverising heaviness, as Baphomet developed a strong profile alongside fellow New Yorkers Suffocation and Immolation for shaping the brutal end of the death metal spectrum in the early 1990�s when the scene was truly flourishing.
Baphomet later became known as Banished, whilst keeping the same line-up, and received further success with the �Deliver Me Unto Pain� album which was released by Deaf/ Peaceville Records in 1994.
This vinyl edition of �The Dead Shall Inherit� is presented with its original sleeve artwork.
