Formulas Fatal to the Flesh is the fifth full-length studio album (excluding release of Abominations of Desolation) by death metal band Morbid Angel. The title of this album is a biblical reference: it contains the letter "F" - the 6th letter of the alphabet - capitalised three times, which refers to the Number of the Beast, 666.[citation needed] This is the first album to introduce singer/bassist Steve Tucker replacing David Vincent and has some lyrical content written in Sumerian.

The tunings for this record as on Covenant and Domination remained Eb, but Trey Azagthoth used a 7 string guitar tuned to Bb as well. Therefore, the tunings used are either Eb or Bb.[citation needed]
