Prepare for the long-awaited second full-length assault from this Finnish powerhouse. Morbific, a putrid Death Metal trio hailing from the unholy grounds of Kitee, Finland, emerged in early 2020, comprised of Olli on guitar, Jusa handling vocals and bass, and Onni on drums. Their inaugural "Pestilent Hordes" demo, unveiled in the summer of 2020, swiftly garnered acclaim among discerning enthusiasts of decay-laden Death Metal. Influenced by the likes of Autopsy, Rottrevore, Deteriorot, Mortician, Grave, Maimed, Undergang, Impetigo, and venerable Finnish masters such as Funebre and Disgrace, Morbific solidified their presence with the release of their debut full-length, "Ominous Seep of Putridity," in the spring of 2021.
Now, the time has come to unleash another torrent of pus with their second abomination, aptly titled "Squirm Beyond the Mortal Realm." This sophomore offering is a noxious journey through a sludgy, barbaric landscape where relentless stomps and cyclonic vortexes collide in a raw, almost demo-like fashion. However, do not mistake this rawness for happenstance or budget constraints; Morbific deliberately seeks to torment listeners with an uncomfortable and punishing experience, reserved only for the most dedicated followers of the macabre.
"Squirm Beyond the Mortal Realm" presents an unsettling auditory experience, where the riffs themselves defy convention, the bass resonates like nuclear fallout, and the eerie, spacious mix invites supernatural horror to seep through. The result is a unique and discomforting sonic journey, showcasing Morbific's unconventional songwriting and commitment to delivering an unapologetically raw and authentic Death Metal sound.
In a musical landscape saturated with trends, "Squirm Beyond the Mortal Realm" defiantly stands as an offering to the dedicated few rather than catering to the masses. Venture forth into the grim and grimy realm depicted in the haunting cover art by Chase Slaker, and brace yourself for an auditory descent into the abyss that Morbific promises will be your last.
