Tyrannic - Mortuus Decadence CD

CD. The tyrant torments again... under the glassy gazing eye of the goat to scythe, slash and sow the discontent of death's morbid passion. A hell-bent harvest of decadent doom and maniacal old school black metal to bask in the bacchanalian bleat of the beast; A BEAST of an album! A LOT happens across Mortuus Decadence, with each of the five principal tracks taking treacherous turns and demonic detours throughout the album's 43-minute runtime. Truly, the sum effect is unsettling; the reconfigured trio unleash endlessly rolling/roiling screeds of physicality that mutate in a most bizarre manner. Both denominations of "black" and "doom" are still apropros here, but the seemingly scattershot attack TYRANNIC take strikes upon the wild & weird terrain trod by the likes of old Mortuary Drape, Root, Hungary's Tormentor, Barathrum, Brazilian iconoclasts like Impurity and Sextrash, or even very earliest Mayhem. Still, it cannot be overstated that there's indeed order here - except that it's cracked and broken and betraying a woozy wisdom only known to TYRANNIC. - Seance Records
