Pierced From Within

Pierced from Within is the third full length studio album by the death metal band Suffocation, released May 23, 1995 on the Roadrunner label. "Synthetically Revived" is a re-recording of the song of the same name from the Human Waste EP and "Breeding the Spawn" is a re-recording of the title track from the band's previous album. Both this album and Effigy of the Forgotten have been re-released by Roadrunner Records as part of the Two from the Vault series. Before 2013's Pinnacle of Bedlam, this was the only full-length album by Suffocation not to feature Mike Smith as a drummer. It is the band's last album with guitarist Doug Cerrito and bassist Chris Richards, and the only with drummer Doug Bohn. At 45 minutes and 31 seconds, it is the band's longest album to date.
