Osculum Obscenum (album)

Osculum Obscenum is the second studio album by Hypocrisy, released on October 12, 1993 on Nuclear Blast Records. This is the second of two studio albums with vocalist Masse Broberg, who would later be dismissed as vocalist, with guitarist Peter Tägtgren assuming the position instead. Hypocrisy's lyrics do not focus on the paranormal and science fiction as would be the case in later albums, instead focussing on more "traditional" death metal themes such as Satanism and anti-Christianity. The album was later remastered and re-released as a double disk album with their debut album Penetralia in 2013. The title of the album translates to "obscene kiss" from Latin.[3]

gollark: And for even more !!FUN!! each device has its own vendor-provided kernel which is never updated.
gollark: On desktop Linux, I can fit a bootable system onto a small USB stick and happily run it on any modern x86 device. On Android, every device needs its own monolithic system image which is nightmarish to compile.
gollark: My device *is* rooted, which was really not a very pleasant process. But the entire Android architecture appears like a horrible locked-down mess.
gollark: I mean, Android is "Linux". Yet it's horrible and you basically can't do anything.
gollark: it is "Linux", but many of them come with locked down configurations, and I don't think you can access Linuxy features meaningfully.
