Sons of Satan Praise the Lord
Sons of Satan Praise the Lord is a double-disc compilation from Swedish death metal band Entombed, released in 2002 through Music for Nations. Rather than collecting original songs, it gathers together most of the studio covers the band had recorded over the years, which makes it something of a sideways look at their career.
It arrived after the run of albums that began with Left Hand Path in 1990 and had most recently produced Uprising and Morning Star, with Inferno still to come. One cover is missing: Hey On Glue's "Sentimental Funeral", which appeared on the Black Juju EP. For fans, the appeal is hearing what Entombed chose to play when the songs belonged to someone else, and how they bent those songs to their own sound.
