In
their endless quest to push and support current underground acts that
perpetuate the odor of vintage death metal, on July 26th, Memento Mori - in conspiracy
with Unholy Prophecies and Godz ov War Productions - is
proud to present Hexorcist's
striking debut album, Evil Reaping Death.
Memento Mori will release the
CD version, Unholy Prophecies the vinyl
version, and Godz ov War the cassette
version; the CD and tape version will see release on July 26th, while the vinyl
version will follow a bit later.
Unearthed in Florida in early 2019 and comprised of past and current members of
other impious hordes such as Gnosis and Devastator, Hexorcist summon old-school and
blasphemous death metal that may as well fall under the "proto-death
metal" category, for their ferocious and relentless approach to the genre
harkens back to the mid-to-late '80s, when all things extreme were still boiling
in the same malignant cauldron and all boundaries were nothing but a blur that
no diehard dweller of the underground gave a damn about. Hexorcist's aural and lyrical
offering is uncompromising and exudes utter vileness, leaving no room for
absolutely anything that could remotely be considered modern or trendy.
And Hexorcist accomplish precisely
that on their scathing debut album, Evil Reaping Death.
Ridiculously accurate in its title, Evil Reaping Death
is exactly EVIL REAPING DEATH: steeped in the ancients, billowing sulfur,
divebomb leads flying right and left, and the unhinged yet locked-in execution
that can only come from true and total DIEHARDS. Not everything goes in death
metal, and Hexorcist keep a closed mind
when it comes to the Metal of Death. For them, the archaic ways of Morbid
Angel, Necrovore, Sarcofago, Death, Incubus, Possessed, Vital Remains, Slayer,
and Peru's Mortem do not need to be messed with, only upheld, and uphold Hexorcist do here. No more but
definitely no less, Evil Reaping Death
is 666% maniacal death metal for death metal maniacs - exclusively!
With utterly ripping mastering courtesy of Loïc Fontaine at Krucyator Studio,
France and classically evil cover art courtesy of Art Militia, Hexorcist soundly erase 30
years of "progression" with Evil Reaping Death.
