"Gizztober" will forever be a fond memory for me. The band was firing on all cylinders, releasing three albums during the month, going on a massive US tour (where I actually got to see them for the first time), and my personal interest was at an all-time high. For me, Ice, Death... is the pinnacle of it all. It so perfectly captures the energy of the band at this time, playing delicious krauty jams, really having fun together and exploring songs to their depths and peaks. "Ice V," "Iron Lung," and "Magma" are all-timers.
