Unquestionable Presence 1991

"One of my absolute favorite albums. I´ve listened to this album countless times since I got it almost 20 years ago and I never get tired of it. With Unquestionable Presence, Atheist showed that they were light years ahead of their contemporary death metal collegues. Themix of thrashy death metal and jazz/ fusion elements was something unheard of at that time. A truly groundbreaking album which paved the way for other technical / progressive death metal artists like Cynic, Gorguts and Pestilence ( IMO even Death were influenced by Atheist and visa versa of course). A Masterpiece."

"quot;Unquestionable Presence" is not an easy listen if you are a newcomer to extreme progressive metal, and it contains many parts that will make you scratch your head - but that's exacly why it's a great challenging listen. There are a lot of jazzy drives on this album which sometimes make it sound like an evil "20th Century Schizoid Man"."
