RESURRECTION (Florida, USA) - Embalmed Existence (sealed LP copy) (2020 Hammerheart Records re-issue on Black vinyl). The defining feature of Resurrection’s “Embalmed Existence” (originally released by Nuclear Blast way back in 1993) was “The Storyteller.” He was essentially an amateur voice actor who assumed an insane persona to tell an insane story. Voice-overs, which in sum formed the story, began every track but one.

The result was a Death Metal record that felt like a twisted children’s tale. Love them or hate them the voice-overs were unique. Now Hammerheart Records will finally reissue the record with its original 1993 contents with remastered sound. The lavish liner notes feature historical photos and essays regarding the reissue, the demos, and the origin of The Storyteller.

We have no hesitation in naming it one of the better Florida death records of 1993, with more durability than even heavyweights like Morbid Angel and Atheist were able to muster that year. The debut also benefits from great production and even greater cover art. Granted, Scott Burns and Dan Seagrave were the usual standbys for this scene, but both did good by Resurrection. Highly recommended for fans and collectors of: Classic US Death Metal acts such as: earlier Death, Obituary, Deicide, Malevolent Creation, and Atheist. Hammerheart Records – HHR 2020-14
