Earache Records Albums
Ear pain, also known as earache or otalgia, is pain in the ear. Primary ear pain is pain that originates from the ear. Secondary ear pain is a type of referred pain, meaning that the source of the pain differs from the location where the pain is felt. Most causes of ear pain are non-life-threatening. Primary ear pain is more common than secondary ear pain, and it is often due to infection or injury. The conditions that cause secondary (referred) ear pain are broad and range from temporomandibular joint syndrome to inflammation of the throat. In general, the reason for ear pain can be discovered by taking a thorough history of all symptoms and performing a physical examination, without need for imaging tools like a CT scan. However, further testing may be needed if red flags are present like hearing loss, dizziness, ringing in the ear or unexpected weight loss. Management of ear pain depends on the cause. If there is a bacterial infection, antibiotics are sometimes recommended an ...

Pete Sandoval
Pedro Rigoberto "Pete" Sandoval (born May 21, 1964) is a Salvadoran-born American drummer, best known for his work with extreme metal bands Morbid Angel, Terrorizer and I Am Morbid. According to Jason Birchmeier of AllMusic, Sandoval "challenges one's perception of how fast a drummer can possibly drum." Career His first significant stint as a drummer was for the grindcore band Terrorizer, formed in 1986, where he began to demonstrate some of his talent. Heavily influenced by the grindcore music around him, Sandoval quickly developed his abilities as a drummer with little formal training or musical education. In 1988, Sandoval was invited to join the death metal band Morbid Angel. Concurrently, the original lineup of Terrorizer was dissolved after the departures of Sandoval and guitarist Jesse Pintado (who subsequently joined Napalm Death). Sandoval had never used two bass drums before joining Morbid Angel. He had to practice frequently in order to get his feet up to spee ...

Gateways To Annihilation
''Gateways to Annihilation'' is the sixth studio album by American death metal band Morbid Angel, released on October 17, 2000 by Earache Records. This album saw a change in musical style as the speed-laden intensity of the previous album '' Formulas Fatal to the Flesh'' was abandoned for a slower, more droning style, reminiscent of '' Blessed Are the Sick''. This is also the first album in which Steve Tucker contributed lyrics and music to the band. It is also the second and last album to feature guitarist and keyboardist Erik Rutan. Dan Seagrave painted the album cover. This marks the first Morbid Angel album cover he had painted since '' Altars of Madness''.
