At the Gates (Swe) - Gardens of Grief Demo 1991

The early AtG stuff is some of my favorite music ever created. People have come to recognize the brilliance of Red in the Sky but still I don't think a lot of folks talk about this demo. Some people would actually argue this beats all their records but for me personally I prefer their debut album, though both releases are of course fantastic :)

Souls of the Evil Departed - 0:00
At the Gates - 3:33
All Life Ends - 8:54
City of Screaming Statues - 15:02
