The Erosion of Sanity is the second full-length album by Canadian technical death metal band Gorguts. The album was released on January 19, 1993 through Roadrunner Records. Though it is now considered a milestone in the genre, the album's release coincided with the decline of death metal's popularity as a genre, and Roadrunner decided to drop the band from their roster.[2] The band subsequently entered into a five-year state of limbo in which they ceased touring, during which all members except Luc Lemay left. Gorguts later returned with a new lineup, releasing their third full-length album Obscura in 1998.[3]

The Erosion of Sanity (с англ. — «Эрозия здравомыслия») — второй полноформатный альбом канадской техничной дэт-метал группы Gorguts. Альбом был выпущен 19 января 1993 года на лейбле Roadrunner Records. Хотя сейчас его признают вехой в своём жанре, выпуск альбома совпал с падением популярности дэт-метала как жанра, и Roadrunner Records решила исключить группу из своего списка[2]. Вследствие этого группа вошла в пятилетнее состояние неопределенности, в течение которого они прекратили гастроли, и группу покинули все участники, кроме её основателя Люка Лемэя. Позже Gorguts вернулись с новым составом, выпустив свой третий полноформатный альбом Obscura в 1998 году[3].Другой контент может иметь иную лицензию.
