MORTIFICATION - POST MOMENTARY AFFLICTION (Vinyl, 2017, Soundmass)
Continuing with our chronological release of Mortification albums on VINYL, Soundmass are happy to announce the LP release of their 1993 album Post Momentary Affliction After the pounding death/grind of 1992's Scrolls of the Megilloth, this album sees Mortification returning to their thrash roots, but with a refinement and creativity which would see this recording considered a classic. With the influences of Manowar and Iron Maiden on display, we?re treated to a feast of incredible thrash and speed metal that is laced with death metal. Complex songwriting, precise riffing, masterful bass playing, phenomenal drumming, intelligent lyrics performed in a fresh death growl/thrash shout style, all captured with clear and clean production. Recognised by many critics as an innovative album, and arguably seeing this trio crafting songs at their artistic peak, ?Post Momentary Affliction? is distinctly Mortification and showcases everything fans love about this band.
Remastered for vinyl and with the original cover art re-created from scratch by drummer Jayson Sherlock, this vinyl edition is a must for fans of this pioneering Aussie band and any true metal aficionado. Included is an insert containing lyrics, credits and photo
