this album isnt cool at all.. it isnt nice... crimson still rulz | Review by: iNfernum A rude burp signifying the beginning of their career, Edge of Sanity started out as nothing more than a group of enthusiastic kids with Nothing But Death Remains. Given their youthfulness and eagerness to play death metal music did not quite match up with their ability, it's no real surprise this album is basically a slightly amusing footnote to the Edge of Sanity story and nothing more. In their zeal to make death metal, the band's music is a fairly bland concoction of death metal ingredients but none of the spice that would eventually set this band completely apart from their peers. Nothing But Death Remains is chock full of heavy riffing, appropriate death metal subjects ("The Dead" should sum that all up) and monotonous hoarse death metal vocals with nary a variance in sight throughout the whole album. Like other longer running bands such as Therion or Tiamat, initials efforts from Edge of Sanity are amusing at best and entirely yawn inducing at worst. Unless you have some nostalgic tie to this particular album, such as you are a band member's mother and used to let the band jam in your basement, there isn't any particular need to have this Edge of Sanity release. Review by: Gravedaddy666 This album is not as bad as people make it out to be. Problem is that Edge of Sanity become more developed in songwriting and hooks later on but this is decent swedish old school death metal. If you like Bloodbath youll like this, as the songs are total riffage, many of them very interesting. Of course Unorthodox blows this away but this is decent for a time when the band didnt care about anything other than playing death metal. 4 out of 5 Review by: starchildo
