Description
The vitriolic 2nd full-length by this Italian band. Morbus Grave was spawned by A. Th and Erman in 2010 with the goal to exhume rotting, ancient Death Metal influenced by primordial bands such as Death, Possessed, Carnage, Sadistic Intent, Incubus, Malevolent Creation, Celtic Frost, Morbid Angel and Slayer. Due to lack of time, A. Th left the band and Erman was left to continue the path by himself. In early 2015, Erman found the right replacement in Maso on guitars/bass and Pide Guts on drums. This lineup recorded the band’s debut demo, “Throne of Disgust “, which was released in early 2016. Although the lineup was completed with Eros and Edy later in the year, the band seemed to vanish in thin air. After a couple of years of lethargy and many a lineup change, the grave was dug up once again and the band put out some more minor releases on a number of estimable underground labels over the years, steadily getting their craft honed in preparation for their debut full-length, which was ultimately released in 2021. Now a five-headed abomination consisting of Erman (vocals), Edy (guitar), Magiko (guitar), Danny (drums) and Eros (bass), Morbus Grave bring forth their second deadly strike, titled “Feasting the Macabre”, once again centered around ex-thrasher riffing and morbid concepts. With this second album, Morbus Grave honed in on the sinister dread and olden atmosphere of underground Death Metal and lent a sickening level of performance to it that’ll most certainly impress fans of deep-rooted underground classics.
