The Rack defines the word Brutality with its chainsaw sounding guitars and sick vocals which sounds like vocalist Martin Van Drunen is being tortured during the recording of this CD. Contains 11 Live bonus tracks 1991. (2007)

In 2007, roughly 20 years after the band's original formation, the metal community revelled in the return of Dutch doom/death pioneers ASPHYX. Their unforgettable show at Germany's Party.San Open Air resulted in legions of underground supporters yearning for a proper comeback and when the band's acclaimed 2009 studio album Death...The Brutal Way finally hit the scene like a carpet bombing every single doubt was erased in its devastating aftermath - ASPHYX were f**king back!

Unlike many other reunions these days, the interest in ASPHYX appears bigger now than back in the early 90's when tours with Entombed, Bolt Thrower, Benediction and classic album releases like The Rack and Last One On Earth carved the band moniker deep into the annals of death metal history. No-frills, uncompromising death metal played with guts and balls is what ASPHYX continues to stand for, and Deathhammer clearly profits from the band's relentless routine and strengthened team spirit.
