Centuries of Torment – The First 20 Years features three discs and clocks in at over 7hours in length. The first disc is a three hour definitive History of Cannibal Corpse as told by the band, including past & present members, fans, friends, family and the people who were there along the way. Truly the most comprehensive look at the most influential Death Metal band in history. From the band’s staggeringly humble beginnings in Buffalo, NY to the biggest music festivals in the world, Cannibal Corpse’s ascension through constant controversy to become permanent icons in the history of Heavy Metal, and remain as relevant today as the band has ever been, is an amazing story that should intrigue all fans of Heavy Metal.

The second disc includes live performances at With Full Force 2007, Toronto 2006, Party San 2005, New York 2000, Jacksonville, FL 1996, Nashville, TN 1994, Buffalo, NY 1989, and music videos for Staring Through The Eyes Of The Dead, Devoured By Vermin, Sentenced To Burn, Decency Defied, Make Them Suffer, Death Walking Terror, and Stripped, Raped, And Strangled 2007 featuring Trevor Strnad from The Black Dahlia Murder.

Rounding out the DVD release is a bonus disc containing footage about the band’s artwork, merch, fan tattoos, and much more.

The band is currently at work on the follow up 2006’s KILL due out in 2009.
