Symbolic is the sixth album released by Death and it was released in 1995.
Like it predecessors, this album is progressive and technically advanced. It is notable that the average song length on this album is around 5 minutes, while it was around 4 minutes on Human and Individual Thought Patterns, perhaps due to slowed down song tempos closer to that of traditional death metal. As a result, the album was not quite as "technical" as its predecessors but more straightforward, "progressive". ccording to Metal-Rules.com, it is the 7th greatest extreme metal album of all time.

No video was released for this album, but "Empty Words" was released as a single.
