The first genuine death-metal band to sign to a major label, Morbid Angel could either be seen as pioneers of the blackest art, or the men who made the ultimate Faustian pact and sold their souls to the mainstream. Their seventh studio album provides proof that Florida's vilest have never let the pursuit of the dollar dull the edge of their scythe; Gateways to Annihilation appears on harder-than-thou imprint Earache Records, a sure sign that the Angel are taking no prisoners. The seven-minute post-intro opener, "Summoning Redemption," finds drummer Pete Sandoval delivering sheets of drum rolls beneath the doubled-headed assault of guitarists Trey Azagthoth and Erik Rutan. Beyond the caustic grind, Gateways is surprisingly inventive, as evidenced by the Eastern accents in Rutan's solos and classical-influenced passages. --Louis Pattison

5 out of 5 stars Excellent, Just Excellent .......2007-02-21

Morbid Angel are without a shadow of a doubt, one of the greatest and most legendary death metal bands of all time, and I love them to death. Their 2000 release "Gateways to Annihilation, the band's second album with vocalist/bassist Steve Tucker, and my first MA album I bought with Tucker, and I just love it, I can't get enough of it. Yeah I know this album may not be an all out speedfest like most of their previous outings, but this is STILL Morbid Angel all the way, and of course if you're an open minded metalhead like me, I guarantee you'll love this album. GTA still has a few fast tracks including "Opening of the Gates", and "God of the Foresaken" which both have some very fast intense drumming and crazy riffs. Other favorite songs on here including "Summoning Redemption", "To the Victor the Spoils", "Secured Limitations", "He Who Sleeps" and my personal favorite track "Ageless, Still I Am" which has some of the best guitar solos will stay stuck in your head for days and never get old. Steve Tucker's vocals are just dark and brutal, and like Comrade Ren "Altarboy of Madness" said you can actually understand what he is saying. He also has great bass lines that you can hear as well. Trey Azagthoth and Erik Rutan are an excellent guitar team. They both deliver lots of great riffs and awesome virtuoistic solos that will put a big smile on your face. Pete Sandoval's drumming may not be the fastest on here, but it's still great nonetheless, and ohhhh man, his double bass kicks are just absolutely god like.

2. Summoning Redemption (7:16) - 5/5
3. Ageless, Still I Am (5:18) - 5/5
4. He Who Sleeps (4:04) - 5/5
5. To the Victor the Spoils (3:43) - 5/5
6. At One With Nothing (4:33) - 5/5
7. Opening of the Gates (5:15) - 5/5

9. Awakening (1:21) - N/A
10. I (3:50) - 5/5
11. God of the Foresaken (3:51) - 5/5

Like I said before, "Gateways to Annihilation" may not be an all out speedfest, but if you're an open minded metalhead, you'll love this album. Highly recommended to all Morbid Angel fans overall.
MORBID ANGEL RULES!!

3 out of 5 stars Mediocre, unfortunately.......2007-02-12

It's mostly the same style as Formulas Fatal to the Flesh. However, the music simply isn't as good as even that album. The first song is pretty good, the rest are average.

5 out of 5 stars Jumping the "modern-metal" band-wagon? Ha!! .......2006-11-26

That's a really funny joke, because Morbid Angel has NOTHING in common with nu-metal s*** like Korn, the Deftones, Slipknot, and SOAD. Sure, if you're expecting this to be a non-stop speedfest like Altars', then you might be disappointed but if you're open-minded, you'll surely love this.

"Gateways to Annihilation" is my first MA album with Steve Tucker behind the mic and abusing the bass, and even though I still prefer David Vincent, Steve is surely a great DM frontman. Thanks to the superb production, you can actually hear his bass, and his vocals are very good, you can actually understand what he's saying!! Trey Azagthoth and Erik Rutan are a great guitar duo, their unique styles and virtuous riffs and solos go together perfectly. Pete Sandoval, that's all I gotta say. For those of you complaining about the lack of speed, it seems like you only listened to "At One With Nothing," "Opening of the Gates," and "Secured Limitations." Everything else on here is really fast (except for the instrumentals "Kawazu" and "Awakening").

All killer, no filler. My favorites on here are "Summoning Redemption," "Ageless, Still I Am," "I," and "God of the Forsaken."

If you're a MA fan, pick this up now.

1 out of 5 stars No Good.......2006-10-01

Morbid Angel is way past their prime on this one. In fact, even when they were in their prime they weren't that great. Sure, Alters... through Domination were good records but they were highly overrated. As for the Gateways record, its just plain boring. There aren't any songs on here that stand out or even get the listener interested. On top of that, there is a creative shift on this album in the form of slow and groove oriented sections in the music that seem tacked on and make it seem that Morbid Angel has jumped on the "modern metal" band wagon. If you are checking out Morbid Angel for the first time, listen to Abominations of Desolation (if you can find a copy), Altars of Madness, Blessed Are The Sick, Covenant, or Domination. These are decent enough records and a better representation of the band than what is on Gateways.

5 out of 5 stars Very different...But good.......2006-07-17

This was my first Morbid Angel album. I was and still am impressed by it. Compared to most other death metal (including other Morbid Angel albums), this is very slow and has a kinda doomy, cold atmosphere to it. But they manage to pull off this new sound and they have created a very refreshing and intelligent album. This isn't an agressive, flat-out headbanging sort of CD. But if you're in the mood for something different and original, then give this a listen. It's a winner in my book.

    Album Description

    "Very powerful and magical music. One of those rare recordings that will elicit goosebumps." -- NEXUS

    "This is a winner for both male and female listeners. I've listened to it six times and I'm still enthralled." -- New Age Retailer

    "This recording has been growing in popularity among both males and females of the pre-teen crowd. Perhaps it's because the six chants on Gateways, from Native American, Tibetan, Hindu, and other traditions, are simple and easily learned. The drumbeats are based upon the heartbeat and are also easy to play with. Children love to move, dance, play, and sing with the different songs." -- Rolling Stone

    "An exceptional album for chanting! This is designed as a sonic environment for initiatory experience to provide a ritual space of sacred sound. It succeeds beautifully." -- Heartsong Review

    Six extraordinary chants with drumming from different world traditions including Native American, Hindu, Mayan, Tibetan, Hebrew, and other traditions. A profoundly powerful sonic environment of sacred sound designed to bring in the sacred energies of elements and the directions. Excellent for movement and dance. Created by Jonathan Goldman, a world-renowned authority in the field of sound healing who presents lectures, workshops, and training sessions on the power of sound around the world. Features world-renowned chant masters from different traditions.

    4 out of 5 stars Silencing Mental Noise.......2006-08-10

    This is a great guide for anyone willing to empty their mind of day to day contrivances and learn to practice the powers of self healing through silence and meditation. Tolle provides a vehicle for many people who may be unfamiliar with the ways of self-help and new age healing to dip their feet in the water so that they may more fully experience natural healing's powers.

      5 out of 5 stars Best Morbid album...easily!!.......2005-09-05

      Now, I know that a lot of people who like bands that have been around a while, & if there's been a lineup change, almost always say "the band was better w/ so & so." But in this case, this isn't true; at least for this album! This is truly the best album Morbid Angel EVER released at this point in their career [that's right, w/ Steve Tucker on vox! Unfortunately, the album released before & the album released after this one are both terrible in comparison.] This album has it all-----but Sandoval's drumming & Tucker's vocals really make it stand out alone! Of the HUNDREDS of metal CDs I've ever listened to, this is truly 1 of the top death metal classics! Buy this, & blast at full volume!!

      5 out of 5 stars The winds of change..............2000-10-11

      From the first sound of insects creeping to the last cymbol crash, this composition is a masterpiece...Trey is truly a master of his instrument, sculpting and bending it's twisted noises and sounds to make beautiful, sweeping riffs and leads...Like all previous Morbid Angel releases, Gateways To Annhiliation has redefined and broken the barriers...Broken, rigid riffing and odd time changes along with individual guitar lines sculpt original, highly inventive musical compositions...With lyrics and words covering more than the common subjects often found in death/heavy metal music, the reasons for making the music are true...Music for people with a different outlook who can see what can't be seen by most eyes...

          Immersion :- Newly remastered version, includes bonus track:- Akashic Records descend to Hall of Records. Working with sound tones, beyond human language, we reach the original creator angel tones, the tones of light that create form. The original philosophy behind "Immersion" was only recently revealed, along with the new track that is included as a bonus track.

          angelic keys for healing of the body, mind and soul. Angelic Rays of sound float effortlessly to the very cells of your being
          Immersion is the key to life, moving into the subconsiousness that which is submerged through duality. To retrieve that lost part of ourselves, we must IMMERSE ourselves in this task of retrieval of our divine being, collecting all of our selves and bringing our totality into the light. Only then may we exit the current cycle of duality and begin the new creation of the Golden Age on Earth.
          The Eternal Cosmic Rhythm of Life
          Immersion is an offering of the hands of angels, to immerse deep into your own soul, to open the gateways to other realms for healing. The Cd can be used for healing and relaxation. All tracks are imbued with the Christ Light for ascending lower density and duality. Through angelic tones from the heart of source itself, "Immersion" connects you to your origins and "home". As the arms of angels carry you to sublime light heights, effortlessly you slip into the sanctity of your spirit.
          Angelic Keys of Ascension guide you through the veils of illusion to source of ALL.
