Children of the Morgue
Deceased

"Destination: Morgue" - The guitar that begins is quite the melodic delight as it builds anticipation for what is to come. I always love a good intro song; I think it sets the stage for the rest of the album and is an important addition in any album. DECEASED offers a great intro song, leading into a great album. "Children of the Morgue" - This song stands out as a gripping and harrowing track. The song's ominous atmosphere is set with a slow-burning intro, building into a frenzied, relentless onslaught of raw, uncompromising Death Metal. The vocalist's deep, menacing growls perfectly captures the dark themes that the song explores, while the musicianship is tight and precise, creating a sound that's both punishing and engaging. "Terrornaut" - This is a brutal track that pays homage to classic sci-fi horror themes. The song's chaotic mix of brutal riffs and haunting vocals instantly transport listeners to a nightmarish, otherworldly realm. The driving energy of the song is unrelenting, with the band showcasing both technical prowess and their ability to create a gripping atmosphere.
"The Reaper is Nesting" - This song takes listeners on a journey through a harrowing sonic landscape. The songs ominous and doomy intro builds into a crushing onslaught of brutal riffs and thundering drums, punctuated by the band's unmistakable guttural vocals. This song seamlessly blends the old-school Death Metal influences with modern production values, resulting in a powerful listening experience. "Eerie Wavelengths" - This is a mesmerizing and atmospheric track that draws listeners into a world of dark, haunting sounds. This songs slow, brooding intro sets the stage for a sonic journey through realms of occult and mystical themes. DECEASED masterfully builds tension throughout the song , using both dynamic shifts and moments of eerie calm to create a compelling listener experience. "Fed to Mother Earth" - This is a powerful and brutal Death Metal song that explores themes of mortality and the cycle of life. This song kicks off with a barrage of punishing riffs and thunderous drums, setting the stage for DECEASED'S signature guttural vocal style. This song takes listeners on a journey through a world of despair and ruin, with seamlessly transitioning from moments of frenzied chaos to slower, more introspective sections.
