MASSACRE (Florida, USA) - Resurgence (sealed LP copy) (2021) Released by Nuclear Blast on Cyan & Mustard Swirl w/Black Splatter vinyl - limited to 700 copies) The band's 4th full-length studio album originally released on October 22nd, 2021.

The legendary Floridian Death Metal machine MASSACRE has returned from the beyond. The seminal act's roster, past and present, has included musicians from bands such as KREATOR, DEATH, OBITUARY, NASTY SAVAGE, SIX FEET UNDER, DOWN BY LAW and more.

"Resurgence" is head and shoulders above MASSACRE's second and third albums, 1996's "Promise" and 2014's "Back From Beyond". Kam Lee and company have expressed their intentions for "Resurgence" to stand as the proper follow-up to their classic opus "From Beyond". Similarly, the way that album's savage opener "Dawn of Eternity" starts with a teasing, epic intro, so too does "Resurgence" begin with a comparable intro and lead-in riff with "Eldritch Prophecy".

MASSACRE strike a fine balance between raw, classic Death Metal and a version of Metal that's more contemporary, augmented with touches of melody. This isn't a negative, however, "Resurgence" is a winner because it isn't a simple rehash.

Expecting a classic band to reach the stars in the same way that it once did is an unfair expectation, but it is an inevitable one. Sure, "Resurgence" isn't going to leave the indelible impression that "From Beyond" did.

But there is no question that "Resurgence" is a fantastic, "true" Death Metal album that should satiate both elitists and newbies alike. Nuclear Blast – 5910
