It seems that tribute albums is fashion at the moment, but in my experience they�re often disappointing; as many bands as possible jammed into a single CD, without any care about the sound quality nor the quality of the band. But when I saw the line-up for this one I was really excited. Depression, Screaming Afterbirth, Rot, Ancient Necropsy, Corpsefucking Art and Lymphatic Phlegm (to mention just a few) are not known for disappointing, so the Mortician tribute shows a lot of potential. And during my initial listen I was blown away by the brutality of some of the acts I�ve never heard of. And I will definitely look up Fleshbomb after hearing their powerful interpretation of Zombie Apocalypse. And the sound quality is also much better than on most tributes, but the overall quality and excitement goes down the drain after a while, as the great sound�s not present during the middle part of the CD. But nevermind, most acts deliver the goods quite well anyway. But this is a tribute album, as mentioned several times already, meaning there are no original songs and only covers of the almighty Mortician. So of course the songs are blasting, mangling, shredding pieces of utter death metal brutality. Sure, some versions aren�t exactly the best I�ve heard, but overall the quality of the contributing acts are acceptable. But of course there has to be that absolutely sucky band too, and in this case it�s 3:15 AM.
Some notes are written down by Vincent Touzeau of Vomit Zine, explaining why Mortician kicks so much arse. Bloody wicked cover artwork by Phlegeton Art Studio as well. It�s cool to find acts from all over the world on here too, eventhough I�m surprised there aren�t any Asian or Scandinavian ones. To sum it all up it�s a good CD, and actually one of the better tribute albums I�ve encountered.
