Covenant is the third official full-length album by death metal band Morbid Angel. It was released on June 22, 1993. This album represented Morbid Angel's first foray into the mainstream metal scene, through their contract with Giant Records. They also had their music video for God of Emptiness, featured on Beavis and Butt-head. The style of this album is more akin to the slower style of the previous album Blessed are the Sick, but some say that it is darker and more disturbing in approach. Some early pressings of the album had a Parental Advisory logo on the cover. Future pressings of the album were produced without the advisory. Much of the lyrics for this album, written by David Vincent, could be considered Morbid Angel's most occult and Satanic. The album's cover image shows a page from "The Book of Ceremonial Magic" by Arthur Edward Waite to the right, and a reproduction of the pact of Urbain Grandier on the left. According to Nielsen Soundscan, Covenant is the bestselling death metal albums of all time, with sales of over 127,000 User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
