NEWS: Necronomicon Ex Mortis prepare for round #3!

They may have given us the finger *ahem* silver bullet with their last audio confession but Chicago based Technical Death Metal outfit Necronomicon Ex Mortis survived to tell the tale. They’ve got a third EP in “You and Your Friends Are Dead: Game Over” lined up for a 29th June release and have premiered “Leprechaun” to get us warmed up. That’s one of five with a blood soaked shred twist that play on themes inspired by low budget horror movies, another being “Jason Lives“.

For those not in the know: “Necronomicon Ex Mortis was formed by Michael Nystrom Bala out of a desire to combine elements of classic death metal, 80s shred worship, and gory lyrics about B-horror movies. After writing far too many songs, Michael contacted guitarist Manuel Barbara, who joined the band because he had “nothing better to do.” Shortly after, bassist Yusuf Rashid joined the band so he could escape the jazz world and play music people would listen to outside of an elevator. The three amigos then enlisted fellow Berklee Bros Craig Schmuhl and Joey Ferretti, on vocals and drums respectively. Apparently they didn’t have much better to do, either.”
