Backyard Mortuary/Lure Of The Occult/Blood Harvest Records/2013 12 Inch Review


  Backyard  Mortuary  are  a  band  from  Australia  that  plays  a  very  old  school  form  of  occult  death  metal  and  this  is  a  review  of  their  2013  12  inch  "Lure  Of  The  Occult"  which  was  released  by  Blood  Harvest  Records.

  Drums  range  from  slow,  mid  paced  to  fast  drumming  with  some  blast  beats  being  utilized  at  times,  while  the  bass  playing  has  a  very  dark  tone  with  riffs  that  follow  the  riffing  that  are  coming  out  of  the  guitars.

  Rhythm  guitars  range  from  slow,  mid  paced  to  fast  old  school  death  metal  riffs  that  are  very  dark,  heavy,  raw  and  primitive  sounding  with  some  morbid  sounding  melodies  being  thrown  the  riffing  at  times,  while  the  lead  guitars  are  very  dark  sounding  old  school  death  metal  guitar  solos  and  leads  that  utilize  some  melody  at  times.

  Vocals  are  mostly  deep  death  metal  growls  with  some  high  pitched  screams  being  utilized  at  times,  while  the  lyrics  cover  darkness,  gore  and  occult  themes,  as  for  the  production  it  has  a  very dark,  heavy,  old  school,  raw  and  primitive  sound  with  some  of  the  songs  being  long  and  epic  in  length.

  In  my  opinion  Backyard  Mortuary  are  a  very  great  sounding  heavy  and  dark  old  school  occult  death  metal  band  and  if  you  are  a  fan  of  this  musical  genre,  you  should  check  out  this  album.  RECOMMENDED  TRACKS  INCLUDE  "Beyond  The  Grave"  "Lure  Of  The  Occult"  and  "Demons  Blood".  RECOMMENDED  BUY.
