UMUR
"Metaphysincarnation" is the second full-length studio album by Italian death metal act Electrocution. The album was released through Goregorecords in May 2014. It´s the successor to "Inside the Unreal" from 1993 and after 21 years incredibly features the exact same quartet lineup who recorded the predecessor. "Inside the Unreal (1993)" is often considered a classic Italian death metal release from the early 90s, and when Goregorecords opted to reissue the debut album in 2012, Electrocution reunited.
Stylistically the material on "Metaphysincarnation" is old school death metal but with the occasionally more contemporary twist to keep things fresh. There´s also a technical edge to the playing at times, but it´s not the dominant style. The preceding album was a pretty standard quality death metal release, and earned it´s reputation as a lost 90s gem, more to the fact that it was almost impossible to find before it was reissued in 2012, than to the actual quality of the material. "Metaphysincarnation" continues that trend. It´s a decent quality death metal release, featuring strong musicianship, and a relatively well sounding production job (the drums though could have prospered from a more organic tone), but the material does not stand out as anything out of the ordinary for the style.
When that said "Metaphysincarnation" is still a professional release and an enjoyable listen while it plays, and while it´s not the first death metal release I would recommend listening to, there is enough quality here to warrant the occasional listen. A 3 star (60%) rating is warranted.
