Over the course of its 27 tracks,
Torn from the Grave, the best-of/odds-and-ends compilation from death metal destroyers
Autopsy, delivers wave after wave of gore-loving sonic destruction. With a mix of album, live, and demo tracks, the compilation covers all of its bases, giving new fans a nice overview of the destruction these guys have unleashed upon the world while also digging up some lost gems and live cuts for longtime fans to tear into. Most striking on the album are those live and demo tracks, which seem to revel in the grime of their lo-fi recordings, giving listeners the feeling of witnessing some kind of violent act no one was ever meant to see, giving the collection that little boost that makes it an easy recommendation for any death metal fan. ~ Gregory Heaney
