If you're expecting the raw power and attitude of "Scream Bloody Gore" then forget it. This is Death's most commercial album, but this is by no means a bad thing, giving a clean sounding yet hugely battering sound. From the opening drum-cum-guitar riff, this record breathes controlled brutality from the outset. From the savage riffing throughout, to Chuck's fantastic vocal skill, musically this record demonstrates Death's talent in its purest form. Title track "Spiritual Death" features some of the most grinding vocals and riffs you will ever hear.
Despite lacking the sheer intensity of Death's first two albums, 'Spiritual Healing" is a testament to Death's rejuvenation of the death metal scene and the sheer passion of their music.

Spiritual Healing of the first four Death albums is probably the hardest to get into. This is a giant leap from the measured evil of Leprosy. But it is a good leap.
Death still sound like death metal on this, their 3rd album released in February of 1990. But this time round the production is very clean, and Chuck's lyrics signal a more mature approach to his songwriting and song structure. Rather than just wax lyrical about satanism and massacre, Chuck deals with some fascinating topical subjects.
This album may initially disappoint with the fact that it doesn't instantly roar from the speakers, but repeated listenings, like any good albums, show their quality. And over twelve years since, this album still stands head and shoulders over a vast majority of subsequent death metal albums. Highly progressive, thoughtful and enjoyable.

When you buy a Death CD, you expect the best and that's exactly what you get, probably the greatest Death Metal band ever.

Schuldiner hints at Prog aspects...
Spiritual healing first came to my attention in about 1991 when I got a copy of 'At Death's Door', a Roadrunner compilation tape that included the track 'Killing Spree' (I think,... Read more

Progression, but at a cost
I have a bit of trouble with this album. You can't blame a band for evolving, but the evolution on show here comes from the head not the heart. Read more
