Elements 1993

"Elements is the third full-length studio album by Americanjazz/ fusiondeath metal act Atheist. A groundbreaking mix of fusion/ jazz, latin musical elements and death metal. Elements takes the the fusion elements that Atheist introduced on Unquestionable Presence and and builds even further on their already unique style. A seminal album in the genre and a true masterpiece IMO. The musicianship is outstanding in addition to some really innovative compositions."

"Probably one of the most original releases within the world of extreme metal ever, "Elements" is also one of the most underappreciated ones; probably because it's hard to get one's head around with its blend of progressive metal, fusion-like jazz, and Latin rhythmic patterns. But this is also what makes "Elements" a very interesting and enjoyable listen."
