Get a copy of this tape while it’s available! CANADIAN ASSAULT Webzine: This band is from New York City and this EP release consists of four songs and an intro for around 25 minutes of music. Mortiferoth is a trio and features of note bassist Brian Hobbie (ex-Internal Bleeding, ex-Broken Hope). They play driving and furious old school death metal that has a enjoyable atmosphere across the whole warm sounding killer production. The vocal attack is a distinct dual vocals style, for me the growling voice is a bit so-so but still decent, the higher gurgling vocal style on the other hand is excellent. You really should check this out.   - Dale CROSSFIRE METAL Webzine: Da ich aus der Tapetrading-Szene komme und als einziger Redakteur scheinbar noch ein Doppelkassettendeck besitze, werde ich auch noch einigermaße regelmäßig mit Original-Tapes zum Besprechen bemustert. Ein bisschen merkwürdig ist dass im Fall Mortiferoth schon, denn hier handelt es sich um eine EP, die es auch auf Vinyl gibt. Mortiferoth kommen aus den Vereinigten Staaten von Amerika, existieren seit 2015 und spielen Old School Death Metal amerikanischer Prägung. Kurioserweise gibt es immer noch kein richtiges Album von ihnen, sondern nur Demos und EPs. Das macht für mich eine Vinyl-Version dieser EP noch kurioser. Egal, kommen wir zur Musik, denn die ist richtig geil! Ein mystisches anderthalbminütiges Intro erklingt, bevor es vier richtige Songs gibt, die im typischen Neunziger US-Stil gehalten sind. Irgendwo zwischen Immolation, Imprecation, Sadistic Intent und Necrovore gibt es hier diabolischen Death Metal mit gutem spielerischen Können, aber auch viel düsterer Atmosphäre auf die Ohren. Neben dem guten Zusammenspiel punkten sie auch mit einer fetten Produktion, die alles an die Wand drückt. Geil finde ich, dass Mortiferoth trotz der bekannten Zutaten immer frisch und originell klingen und niemals wie eine billige Retro-Band. Death Metal-Fans der Neunziger sollten sich dieses Mini-Album auf alle Fälle zulegen; egal ob auf Tape oder auf Vinyl! Uneingeschränkter Pflichtkauf! VOICES FROM THE DARKSIDE Webzine: I first came across Brian Hobbie when “The Cleansing” by CATASTROPHIC was released. The highlights of the press release of that album was of course Trevor Peres and Keith DeVito of OBITUARY and PYREXIA and INTERNAL BLEEDING fame, with Hobbie as a side note. “The Cleansing” was a solid NYDM infused OBITUARY styled Death Metal album. CATASTROPHIC released a second album, which I don’t think I ever laid ears on. Luckily Hobbie didn’t put the bass down, and nowadays he roams in MORTIFEROTH. A band that hails from New York and has been around since 2015 releasing a good bunch of demos and EPs. The newest EP has been caught by French Nihilistic Holocaust, that have released “… To The Abyss” on tape. We are of course speaking Death Metal, Death Metal delivered with really smooth and catchy guitar riffs, solid mid paced rhythm patterns and a guttural growl latching on the groovy rhythms. The music is a solid mix of NY grooviness and the seamless flow of riffs that especially OBITUARY masters. Together with a state of ambience that IMMOLATION masters, just in a much lighter and nowhere as evil version on this EP. Production wise the EP lacks a bit of power and punch, I reckon the music with a powerful production would kick some serious ass. We have the riffs, the solos and the smashing rhythms. Songwriting wise the tunes are solid. The growl lacks some conviction to make the songs stand out, a more direct and powerful growl with some serious bottom would do wonders for the songs. The double growls on ‘Decay’ and ‘Retaliation Of The Ancient Sorcerers’ work really well, more of that spread around the tunes, please. And what a guitar solo on that last track, damn good stuff! That being written, it’s still a solid release with some good ideas and good execution. I think we will hear a lot more of MORTIFEROTH the coming years, the guys have some good things going on.

I have added a new carrier called HAPPY POST to the Webshop, and the prices will be cheaper! :-) This is for 5 countries of continental Europe: Germany, Spain, Netherlands, Italy and United Kingdom. The prices are cheaper than with french postage service, and it provides the same service: A package with a tracking number, delivered at your address. You might not be familiar with HAPPY POST, because this is a french company that collaborates with other carriers.: For example in Germany they use the services of Hermes, or in Uk they use Amazon… I have tested them the last months and got no problem. I have also added Mondial Relay (Inpost) for Italy, which is even cheaper. The package is delivered in a locker located close to your address, it’s not delivered directly at home. Many peoples like it in France, Belgium... This service is still available for Belgium, Netherlands, Spain and Portugal… And it’s really cheaper! So mail me if you have a question (What is a “locker”? Where to find it? How does it work?) because it’s worth it... https://nihilistic-webzine-distro.fr/Webshop/
