Morgue Supplier s/t 9.5/10
Review by Corey Athos for Busuk Chronicles
The album starts with complete chaos on
every instrument and only lets up for an occasional groove then back to
Armageddon . Half way through the first
song something really caught my ear. A
Gorguts’ “Obscura” era style part. I’ve
come to realize the whole album has that chaotic overtone. I consider this as an “Obscura II” although
they definitely have their own sound completely. There’s the same chaos, darkness, dissonance
and bipolar changes. When we(Flesh
Consumed) played in Chicago with them, they completely destroyed. Out of all the bands despite my normal
pre-show rituals, I stopped to watch Chicago natives, Morgue Supplier. Point being they are even more intense live,
which is an extremely difficult task seeing that their album is solid with a great production and intense as
hell. The music goes from complete
chaos to come all together seamlessly. The
solos that are on the album are completely fitting to the style. Chaotic, demented, and psychotic reminiscent
of no other guitarist and if forced to I would compare them to Bob Virga’s
(Immolation) psychotic choice of notes and the cleanliness and flow of Shaune
Kelley (Ripping Corpse, Dim Mak, Flesh Consumed). Every piece, from the bass tone to the vocal
intensity creates a soundscape fitting of impending doom. Tension and release is huge on this album to
reset your mind. Make your tolerance for
the chaos die off then hit you hard again and again, punishing. The dynamics are impeccable. Being primarily a vocalist I highly respect
vocalist Paul Gillis’ vocal approach. He
has a million voices and each one uttered is another demonRE released. This and every time I listen I find a new
layer or element I hadn’t yet discovered.
Morgue Supplier’s Self-titled release is a masterpiece, plain and
simple. I will definitely continue to play this album daily. - 9.5/10
