Resurrection Embalmed Existence Sees Re-Issue

Hammerheart Records plans to re-issue Resurrection Embalmed Existence on April 20, 2020, bringing this second-wave Florida death metal release to the light once again. Originally issued in 1993, this slab of well-produced solidly chunky death metal never quite got the attention of other Florida bands.

To many of us, “The Storyteller” — an amateur comedian who told twisted tales in a Hollywood medieval witch accent between songs — obstructed any honest viewing of how this album would have done on its own. Many people hated the interludes; I remember hitting the STOP button my tape recorder before they came on, and resuming afterwards, in order to produce a tape copy of this album without the chatter.

As far as second-wave albums go, this one has a lot to recommend it, but like Slayer Seasons in the Abyss, it is transitional because the songs are going more toward strict verse-chorus with an emphasis on vocals, although they are not all the way there.

You can order it in pre-order from the Hammerheart Resurrection mailorder page page.

    Hah! Didn’t know about this, sounds stupidly fun, I’ll check it out just for the sake of it. Nice article, fun personal trivia, thumbs up.

    Is that what I think it is, a legible death metal logo? Somebody call the cops!

    Thank you.

    On a related note do you know this output from 1993? I dig it.
