Today, underground legends Deceased premiere the new track "Germ of Distorted Lore" at Decibel magazine's website. The track hails from the band's long-awaited eighth album, Ghostly White, set for international release on November 16th via Hells Headbangers on CD, vinyl LP, and cassette tape format. Hear Deceased's "Germ of Distorted Lore" in its entirety exclusively HERE.
By now, Deceased need no introduction. One of the longest-running American death metal bands, since 1985, Deceased have
been there for it all: death metal's genesis, its creative peak, its
commercial peak and subsequent sink into trendiness, the eventual
fallout and "un-trendiness," its rebirth at the hands of a new
generation, and on and on. There they have stood, simply and 100% always
Deceased, not caring what year it is or what is hip - simply, always, DEATH METAL FROM THE GRAVE!
And across their sizable-yet-succinct discography, at their heart, Deceased have always been a great HEAVY METAL band. They proved it with 1997's landmark Fearless Undead Machines and continued to prove it with every album thereafter, with 2011's Surreal Overdose showing that even this many years on, their pistons are pumping harder and more creatively than ever.
Ghostly White is Deceased's first album since then, and it's massively anticipated to say the very least. And as expected, this is the sound of Deceased at their finest and most fiery: truly EPIC, narrative songwriting led, as always, by the incomparable creepshow lyricism of founding vocalist King Fowley. Totaling eight songs in a twisting 'n' turning 55 minutes, Ghostly White takes the listener on a breathless yet dynamic ride through the darkest corners of the band's trademark Death Metal From The Grave, with the dual-axe majesty of longtime guitarist Mike Smith and Shane Fuegal (who's been his foil since 2006) taking these songs into almost anthem status. In fact, the urgency and passion with which Deceased play here is startling to behold; most bands even a fraction of their age rarely exhibit this much intensity nor finesse. Of course, throughout, this is simply what they do, because Ghostly White is simply and 100% Deceased.
Some bands rest on their laurels, and other bands merely rest. Deceased may have been away from the album game for some seven years now, but with Ghostly White, they more than prove that they haven't been sleeping: wide-eyed and wild, they're at the top of their game!
