The unsigned band I was most impressed with last year was Montanas Martriden now signed to Siege of Amida Records but 2007 could very well be the year of Swedens Zombie Destrüktion. Seriously, Tales of Morbid Mummification is a great, technically-inclined death metal record that is even more endearing for its comical lyrics, which center on pirates, ninjas, mummies, and of course, zombies.
First and foremost, the trio consisting of Thomas Clifford and the brothers Porsklev is an extremely talented unit as each member handles two, three, or four instrumental duties, respectively, and all of them well. Tales of Morbid Mummification is traditional yet technical and melodic. Guitar leads are intricate, drum fills are dense, and the vocals are deep growls, except for the clean ones in the catchy chorus of Mummified in Mexico. The instrumental sections of Mutilation of the Unborn are nothing short of excellent, and quite possibly the highlight of this 10-track record. While Zombie Destrüktions lyrics arent gore-free, its refreshing to read nontraditional DM lyrics, even if they come across as silly, which shouldnt be an issue with most listeners because the unintelligible vocals obfuscate them to the point where they cant be deciphered without the inlay. Still, they can be funny.
Mummified in Mexico: I went down to Tijuana / Was gonna score me some weed / When I was stopped by a truck of ninjas / Said they were gonna make me bleed
The Pirates of Cary B. Aaargh!: Watch the pirates coming ashore / Now flee in fear / If they find you they will steal your soul / And drink your beer (your beeeeeer!)
And so on. Last but not least, everything about ToMM screams professional release production, songwriting, musicianship, and artwork. Though Im at a loss when its time to compare them to one or more of their peers, Zombie Destrüktion should definitely be looked into if youre a fan of death metal. My only complaint is that, despite being considered a full-length, its a tad short at only 30 minutes. Nevertheless, the band certainly deserves label interest at this point.
