Fear Emptiness Despair

Given that they've been grinding since the early '80s and have more ex-members than most bands have songs, the Napalm Death discography can sometimes seem impenetrable to newcomers. This gigantic double-disc compilation is a great point of entry however, with the first disc spanning the entirety of the band's classic Earache years in an easily digestible package - there's even a handy family tree to help you keep track of where all those former members ended up. The second disc, meanwhile, is invaluable for both newcomers and die-hard fans alike, collecting all manner of out-takes, B-sides and live tracks, including a rare recording of the band teaming up with Godflesh to cover their classic 'Avalanche Master Song' at a 1990 London gig.
