One of, if not the most impressive Swedish metal debut, Soilwork's Steel Bath Suicide (1998) belongs on everyone's short list of must-have '90s metal offerings. Includes the bonus live track 'Sadistic Lullabye'. Listenable/Century Media. Soilwork have quickly become one of my favorite bands. Now that their debut has been reissued by Century Media, all three of their full lenght albums are available in the major music stores. "Steelbath Suicide" sounds similar to their two more recent releases, but one can see the progression that they have made. This album is a little more raw sounding and does not include as many keyboards as "The Chainheart Machine" and "A Predator's Portrait". The instrumentation is fantastic, as it always is with this band. The guitars are loud and in your face; the bass is thick; the drums pound. The vocals are of the growl/shout type, the same as in their other releases. My favorite song is "Skin After Skin", but every song here is strong. If you like In Flames, At The Gates, Gardenian, etc., you will enjoy this album as well.D-load album - http://lix.in/49a45e
