Good two albums
I have to say first off that I liked James Murphy on "Cause of Death" so I am VERY partial here. "The End Complete", to me, is the superior of the two albums but has one MAJOR flaw: EVERY SINGLE solo by Allen West sounds the same. It's one thing if it's like Kirk Hammett soloing where every one has the same scale but this guy is repetitive! The riffs are good, the drumming is excellent and, well, the vocals are what I expect from John Tardy. Unfortunately I can't stand the soloing sooo...I hope that Frozen in Time is a ton better! But, these two albums are worth it, that's why I have both of them!

Bang for the buck
Obituary are as reliable as any death metal band can get. Where Morbid Angel and Death are more complicated Obituary gets their sound from the Sabbath days, with thick sludgy rhythms that can be fast as hell but at other times move about the speed of an ice cream bar melting. That's all good, though because Obituary are the doom experts in Florida style death metal. What brings us to these older releases is the "Two From The Vault" series that give us two Obituary slabs for one, and in this case, extra live tracks.It's all here, the trademark yelps of John Tardy, the pummeling drums and wicked guitars with great lead work courtesy of Alan West and a rhythm sound that is not at all unlike Sepultura's "Beneath the Remains" and "Arise" era. But this is not derivative - it's just the trademark sound of classic death metal. While Obituary may not top their warped but seminal debut "Slowly We Rot" or its evil twin second release "Cause Of Death", they don't put out bad records. These two are slamming affairs and help to assure Obituary's legendary status.

2 Great Albums
Obituary changed the world of Death Metal. When Death Metal was all fast drumming and lightning fast guitar work, and Black Metal was High Pitched vocals (shrills) and more of the same, Obituary came and slowed it down just a bit, and for some reason if just FIT. What really makes Obituary stand out from the others is the vocal work of John Tardy, who I believe might be one of the best vocalist in Death Metal Genere (second to Chris Barnes) These are classics to have in your collection, and even though I am not happy with the direction RoadRunner Records took over the past few years (the dumped almost all their death metal acts and replaced it with the likes of Slipnot and such) my hats off the the label from giving us the "Two from the Vault Series" Its nice to see that the old school death bands are getting remastered and put out in these collections. Hopefully younger audiences will pick up on these, and ditch their Korn, My CHemical Romance, Slipknot, and other nonsense nu Metal bands and learn something about extreme music. Whats even better is there is another Obituary "Two from the Vault" Series. They were one of the best, and still kick some a** today with their new CD "Frozen in Time" If you don't know anything about Obituary, I suggest you get to know them soon..ENJOY

Easily worth your money.
Obituary embodies death metal - tortured vocals, creepy guitars, and blasting drums. At other times, they embody doom metal, with sludgy riffs and a slow pace. Whatever, Obituary are awesome, and this two-fer set is probably the best way to get into them. It packs their best album (The End Complete) with a good album (World Demise), for the price of one. Each album is remastered, and features bonus tracks.On the downside, no lyrics are included (though the vocal are partially understandable). Plus, the cover artwork is horrible. What's with the cheesy, kinda CG looking hands and crypt, with the bands name looking very out of place? Would it have been so hard to simply have the band logo, and pictures of the albums included?Anyway, those complaints mean nothing when the music included is this good. Well worth buying.
