Like an Ever Flowing Stream
Like an Ever Flowing Stream is the debut album from Dismember, the Swedish death metal band. It came out on 28 May 1991 through Nuclear Blast, and it opens a run of eight studio albums that stretches all the way to their self-titled record in 2008.
As a starting point for the band, it's the obvious place to begin. Anyone curious about how death metal sounded in Sweden at the start of the 1990s, or wanting to hear where Dismember's story began before Indecent & Obscene followed in 1993, will find this the natural first stop in their catalogue.
