Penetralia (album)
Penetralia is the debut studio album by Hypocrisy, released on October 5, 1992 on Nuclear Blast Records. This is the first 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. Two music videos would be made for tracks from the record: Impotent God and Left to Rot.[1] The album was later remastered and re-released as a double disk album with their second album Osculum Obscenum in 2013.

gollark: I don't think that particularly matters. We define our perceptual up and down and such based on vision.
gollark: Also merging together information from saccades (rapid eye movements to look at more of a scene with the fovea) and correcting for orientation/vibrations/movement.
gollark: And the brain does a lot of fancy stuff to pretend to have a coherent visual field despite the blind spot and the fact that only a small region (the fovea) can actually sense color well.
gollark: I read that somewhere, I forgot where.
gollark: Apparently the retinas also do edge detection stuff onboard.
