Malevolent Creation is the winner here for me. It is a balanced album that touches on the right amount of every thing from groovy riffs, shred, blast beats, and harsh vocals with no element over powering the other. The keyboards found on The Key might have been innovative for the time but after a while, it felt like the songs were blurring into one another. And as for Monstrosity, it was just average to me. Nothing to write home about.
So...
Malevolent Creation - 3
Nocturnus - 2
Monstrosity - 1
