Baphomet- The Dead Shall Inherit

Label: Peaceville

Reissued, Originally released 1992

Baphomet was formed in Buffalo, New York in 1987, and belonged to the early prolific generation of US death metal, beginning with their ‘Morbid Realities’ demo in 1989. ‘The Dead Shall Inherit’ was Baphomet’s debut album, and was originally released by Peaceville imprint Deaf Records in 1992. This album is revered as a cult classic of pulverising heaviness, as Baphomet developed a strong profile alongside fellow New Yorkers Suffocation and Immolation for shaping the brutal end of the death metal spectrum in the early 1990’s when the scene was truly flourishing.
