PUTREFIANCE (France) – Resurrected Malevolence (sealed CD copy) (2021) Released by Memento Mori in a standard jewel case w/clear tray.
Old School, Raw 'n' Rotten Death Metal with a Punk vibe, inspired by icons of yore such as Autopsy, Master, Repulsion and Obituary.
"Resurrected Malevolence" is the comprehensive sonic archive of the French trio PUTREFIANCE. This CD is a "one-stop shop" for everything the band unleashed before their transition into a full-length era, making it an essential pickup for fans of raw, decomposing Death Metal.
The band’s mission statement was simple: capture the spirit of Old-School, Rotten Death Metal with a distinct Crust/Punk edge. The result is a sound that feels like a basement recording from 1989—unpolished, heavy, and unapologetically disgusting.
Much of the material, including the 2018 demo, was recorded live in the studio, giving the release a visceral, high-energy feel that avoids the "sterile" sound of many modern productions.
Thanks to a drummer with a background in Crust/Punk, the rhythms have a driving, D-beat urgency that separates this from more "technical" Death Metal projects.
