NEWS: Necronomicon Ex Mortis offer a new treat?
The thing about Chicago natives Necronomicon Ex Mortis is that they make us sound like a broken record because they’re so damn prolific! They only dropped EP “You and Your Friends Are Dead: Game Over” on 29th June and already they’ve got a new single titled “Trick or Treat” to beat us to death with! As if that wasn’t enough, having hammered out three back to back EPs in quick succession, the and are planning a 29th November drop for “The Mother Of Death”. Could they make it four from four straight bangers soaked in 80s shred guitar with Death Metal intensity?
Guitarist Michael Nystrom Bala comments: “This tune is Necronomicon Ex Mortis at their most “accessible,” but without sacrificing any of the brutality found in their earlier music. The song is inspired by bands such as Dark Tranquility and Children of Bodom, but also boasts a “classic English metal” style bridge with a guitar solo straight out of a Racer X album right in the middle. Lyrically, the song talks about the fun had on the holiday of Halloween, while also hollowing someone’s skull to make a Jack-O-Lantern. Gory good times! This tune takes the opening slot for how catchy it is; promising the listener of the spookiness to be found with further listening.”
