It also doesn't help that I've always had issues with Pierced from Within's too clean, weak production, and while Effigy of the Forgotten is raw and brutal as ****, it's also kind of obsolete when None So Vile exists. I don't know, but when I listen to Suffocation these days it just makes me want to listen to Cryptopsy.
