Swallowed in Black is the second full-length album by Sadus released in 1990. Reissued by Displeased Records in 2007 with 3 bonus tracks and a videoclip.
Swallowed in Black has been categorized as "right on the borderline between thrash and death metal." The music has been said to be more melodic than on its predecessor, Illusions . The album incorporates clean guitar tones on some tracks. Steve Di Giorgio's bass playing has been called "blinding and intricate." [2]
Eduardo Rivadavia of AllMusic wrote: "DiGiorgio effectively makes his case for the high demand he would enjoy as an extreme metal session player in years to come. As for Sadus, the band, their standing as favorite sons of the first death metal wave remains secure, thanks to fine efforts like Swallowed in Black." [2]
All tracks are written by Sadus.
