MORPHEUS DESCENDS Rerelease

gabalgabow

XTREEM MUSIC is proud to announce that the official re-issue of MORPHEUS DESCENDS' classic debut album "Ritual Of Infinity" is already out!! This cult album was originally released by JL America back in '92 and although it didn't get a proper promotion, this rapidly stablished M.D. as one of the leading forces in the New York brutal Death Metal scene alongside with bands like INCANTATION, BAPHOMET, IMMOLATION, MORTICIAN, etc. This re-issue comes with their previous double 7"EP "Adipocere" that was released by Seraphic Decay Rec. which is now a true collectors item.

The CD includes the following tracks:

"Ritual Of Infinity" [CD '92]
1. The Way Of All Flesh
2. Corpse Under Glass
3. Immortal Coil
4. Trephanation
5. Proclaimed Creator
6. Accelerated Decrepitude
7. Submerged In Adicopere
8. Enthralled To Serve
9. Ritual Of Infinity

"Adipocere" [EP '91]
10. Trephanation
11. Triformed Limbs
12. Stigmatic Crucifixion
13. Residual Kill
14. Accelerated Decrepitude Heathendom Incarnate

After this album, the band released two mini CD's after which they fell into somekind of lethargic state for almost 10 years and now they're back and already working on their 2nd full length for 2006

Your opinions about it?

I guess I would not even listen to this CD...The MORPHEUS Ep is cool, but MORPHEUS DESCENDS sounded and sounds boring in my hears...

the ful length is so fucking boring..considering its release date and the style they play, i hardly think it was good at the time..what about now ? well my friend Gab, time seems to make people forget about how lame it was then...the aura of so called "cult" bands and "cult" releases

Boring is the word. I'm agree wit the guest about the description of Morpheus.
Adipocere has signed a lot of shitty DM band in their early day...but now ?

The MORPHEUS Ep wasn't released on Adipocere,
the Ep was entitled "Adipocere".

There are few releases I like from ALL the stuffs Adipocere has released... the ADRAMELECH Ep, The first SACRAMENTUM stuffs... and that's almost all...

So, you can be sure the fact they stop their label activities isn't sad for me. That might sound "rude", "sad" or whatever, but I do not liked most of their releases, and that's the most important for me!
Other elements that should/ could be taken in consideration, such as the fact they have a big distro, helped a lot of bands (once again, what's the use to help many many bands if the initial band choice wasn't right or correct? It might be even worse...) did massive promotion, is of lesser importance.

'Ritual of Infinity' is very poorly produced, that's why it might sound boring. musically I think it's still less boring than, say...Malevolent Creation.

... and also DEPRAVITY EP.

Many french people will be rather sad. I think all the bands living near to the headquarter of Adipeucher. The Rhone Alpes BM, DM decreased until to its imminent death.
Metallian zine is the biggest promotionnal platform they could have. No need to do a massive promotion elsewhere.

I remember how Adipocere have threatened their "promotional partners" because the reviews weren't done fast enough... They sent an advertisement snail mail to each of them! Ah Ah.

It's quite funny when you know most of these "promotional partners" are peoples who do it on spare time, and never asked them to receive promo stuffs...

remember that...but they only got more bashed in the end haha

gabalgabow

I'm not sure every "promotional partners" bashed Adipocere,
not at all...
Keep in mind some of them see big labels as somekind of Gods, as their messiahs of metal who feed them with their 'hard to find' liquids of life...

I meant they were bashed by "small" zines like BZ (rip). the impact was limited.
