Gojira liked this so much that they based their whole career on this song

Gods. I don’t listen to much Death Metal anymore these days, but I never get sick of Morbid Angel.

insane drumming..Pete Sandoval is amazing

1:26 Holy shit, the druuuuums !

When man beats the computer - Sandoval

Beginning is like a giant marching in space

The most primal and brutal DM band, relentless carnage and a terrifying atmosphere... Morbid Angel will forever be in my top 3

that fukkn double bass is mad fast !!!!!!!!!!

My vote for best Death Metal album ever made

Pete... The BEST FUCKING DRUMMER OF DEATH METAL!! FUCKING AWESOME

This is a serious contender for my favorite Morbid Angel song.

I read this drummer, Pete Sandoval, redefined metal drumming forever. He was the first to take the concept of the blast beat ( which was just super fast single strokes on the snare, bass D. + cymbals) and actually put its concept into a timee signature. And other time signatures he could actuals use as beats and to metronome time. It was no longer just limited to extreme noise for music sake😉 . he changed metal forevever. one of the true legends. To a great man and a great drummer. To pete sandoval 🤘 the highest of horns

Who's here in 2020? Pure devastation!

#1 Morbid Angel Album

godlike drumming--sick drumming

If this is what Hell sounds like... cool

Intro is hypnotizing Lyrics These chains that have choked existence, have fallen away this veil that has blinded eyes has been lifted and now it is gone and like the ways of the sheep the flock has been to only receive led to the gates of their enemy led to the slaughter of their beliefs and now their gazing eyes have turned turned to see us laughing these fools who have thought us to be as they are, have never truly seen guided by limiting the ways that they think, they thought us blind and obscene but now the sheep are wailing cries to a god they never see and as the gates are closing down upon the all they have believed and now their pleading eyes have turned turned to see the eyes of the laughing the ties have bound these fools to the ways of the blind, is ignorant bliss lies that were fed to the slumbering mass they've grazed upon it and all that awaits men failing to see, is the sight they've despised the gates have opened, your religion has died

What true metalheads listen to

I bought this album because of this song at that time , good old days

This sounds amazing in a solid pair of headphones

Incredibly advanced, visionary, and ahead of its time even for the XXI'st century

A lot of influence for Gojira

2:26 insane transition, so smooth and epic

deadly fucking intro

2:29 Almost Mechanical

Unbelievable song. 3.01 is the most hellish sound ever.

is my favorite song after pain divine

The Double Peddle @ 2:00 😨

power, mastery, uniqueness.

2:33 I imagine this melody is playing in Satan's room on infinite loop

Steve Tucker... was für ein Organ! Das ist Death Metal!

I have really the felling, that the gates are open.

Beatiful Song of Death Metal!!!!!

It's such a slow opening,and then beast unleashed upon the masses.

*2:33** THAT SHIT HITS ME HARD!*

Now I remember y death metal is awesome

This song and I are probably the most heaviest songs on the album in my opinion

When this album came out i bought it, went to a copy shop nearby, left them the booklet to print the cover on a shirt, picked it up 2 hours later, paid 20 bucks and had a shirt which looked like a bootleg. They just had white shirts, too.

“And like the ways of the sheep The flock has been to only receive Led to the gates of their enemy Led to the slaughter of their beliefs And now their gazing eyes have turned Turned to see us laughing” The soundtrack for the end of the world. Absolute fucking masterpiece. Morbid Angel are peerless. This always makes me smile with such wicked, evil joy.

OH SHIIT. THIS SONG IS FUCKING AWESOME.

The perfect song to play during lonely time with spouse as her gates open forth. 😏

I bet Gojira based the opening of In the wilderness on the opening of this song, very similar vibes

Drumming on this song is unreal

how can 1 band have the best guitarist & drummer in its genre??

I shared this song from Morbid Angel to broadcast it on Radio Saint Affrique FM. Thanx a lot, long living to rock 'n roll, you're the welcomes. Antoine

Brilliant track. :)

These chains that have choked existence, Have fallen away This veil that has blinded eyes has been lifted And now it is gone And like the ways of the sheep The flock has been bred to receive Led to the gates of their enemy Led to the slaughter of their beliefs Now their gazing eyes have turned Turned to see us laughing These fools who have thought Us to be as they are, Have never seen Guided by limiting ways that they think, They thought us blind and obscene Now the sheep are wailing Cries to a god they’ll never see As the gates are closing down Upon the all they have believed And now the pleading eyes have turned To see the eyes of the laughing Ties have bound these fools Ways of the blind, Is ignorant bliss Lies that were fed to the slumbering mass They've grazed upon it All that awaits men failing to see, Is the sight they've despised The gates have opened, Your religion has died

I remember when this album first came out.. It's still the shit!! 😈

2:26

🤘🏻

4:15-" My Little Pony is the way of the blood" fackin knew it!

Love the newer metal scene right now but not like I love Morbid Angel! These guys have always been one of the best out there!! Gateways to annihilation is one of the best metal albums ever made and super underrated!

This album is where brutal death metal started! Those double kicks in the chorus are brutal even though they are ”fake”!

A lot of green energy from the windmillage

@0:10 808 madness starts

Ah, the album that broke me from listening to shitty nu-metal

Pete the motherfucking Feet, goddamit!!!

wtfffff what is that speed are you kidding me

Under-Rated materpiece! How come they never play this song??

Imagine thinking the drums are triggered

how much of the drumming is made with a drum machine? it sounds fucking insane

13 people who dislike this follow the ways of the 🐑 sheep
