It's an unfair comparison, and it hasn't affected as much my appreciation for other brutal death metal bands, but a long time ago I associated both bands with being the two leading lights of the genre, so one leaping so far ahead of the other in my ears has kind of tainted the other. 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.
