a milestone in death metal... - By: Mr. L. Legrove, 09 Jun 2008 
..qiute simply put, this is up there with the best of them. entombed will never top this, & it still sounds amazing today. a work of art.
"Death's a solution to life's dead illusions!" - By: dogbarkssome, 13 Jul 2007 'Left Hand Path' was a phenomenal enough album, but Entombed just manage to better it with the second album 'Clandestine'. Searing buzzsaw guitar tones bludgeon the listener, but it's the songwriting that really lifts 'Cladestine' into the realms of the classic - more than just a collection of great riffs these are songs that ebb & flow, with the album ranging from incredibly heavy doom-like slow dirges to high-speed frantic workouts where it seems the band are barelyin control of themselves (check out the mad ending of 'Chaos Breed'!). The album is also unique for being the only Entombed album to feature drummer Nicke Andersson on (uncredited) lead vocals, & he provides a worthy replacement for LG Petrov providing some insane bellows & soaring screams. After this Entombed would begin to change their style into a softer 'death & roll' approach which is a shame, but who knows - perhaps having made the ultiamte death metal album they felt they would never be able to better it? Whatever, 'Clandestine' remains the best album Entombed have ever recorded, & definately one of the all time best death metal albums by any band. Essential.
Utter Genius - By: MortalMuppet, 12 Jul 2007 I listen a lot of different metals & this particular CD rates within my top 3 of all time.
It's stunning, the music, the vocal style & the sound bites all work so well to bring the music right into your head & heart. For me this is the finest Death Metal around & the bands from Scandinavia are the best.
So if you want good fast thrashy Death Metal & have heard nothing from Entombed then pick this up along with Left Hand Path.
This CD was at the start of Entombeds music career, with their next album they changed their sound & moved over to what they term 'Death & Roll', which is sound which they continue with today.
Good Soild Death Metal Album - By: Derek Wright, 14 Mar 2006 If your a fan of Death Metal then this has to bein your collection. I love both old skool death metal & the new technical death metal style but I prefer the old skool style for its heavyness & catchy hooky simpler riffs rather than the new technical style shredding speed complicated a guitarist or drummer can doin their songs!
Yes this album may to some people sound a little bit out of date compare to Nile or Cryptopsy but I love it & as will you. There is not one boring song on this album every song is structured well. My Favourite is Sinners Bleed. The double bass from the drums & the guitar riff at the beggining makes me wanna head bang everytime i hear it! Entombed are quite a big band from Sweden but only this album & "Left Hand Path" are the only Death Metal albumsin their discography. After this album they changed to a style known as Death n Roll! which to me aint as good but others do like it or even prefer it. Anyway Entombed - Clandenstine is Heavy catchy Headbanging Material. Recommended for Fans Of Obituary, Grave & Dismember!
