Psycho's Robert very own band! Worth checking out!
Wydawnictwo Muzyczne Psycho, Psycho for short, is back! After the great release of Insepulto’s debut, Robert decided to go old-school all the way with his latest addition to the label’s roster: Mort Douce.
Hailing from the town of P?ock in Poland, North of Warsaw, Mort Douce are a young band formed in 2010 and which just released their very first demo Promo 2013 on both Psycho and Plague Tapes Records. This demo only has two tracks which serve as appetizers for the forthcoming release of a MCD entitled The Valley of Blood and Death. As far as I can tell, it’s already sold out even though I managed to secure a copy… Of course, usually 50 copies do not last long.
Why sign a demo in the first place? I guess that Robert, the founder of WM Psycho, playing the bass guitar himself in Mort Douce probably motivated that choice! What should you expect then from this new Polish act? Vader impressions? Azarath worship? Throneum mimicry? None of that, my dear Sir.
Mort Douce, which in French would mean “Sweet Death”, play actually good ole Death Metal the Swedish way. A crossover in between the sounds of early Grave and Unleashed. The latter being a rather blatant analogy with both production and vocals really close to those of, respectively, Shadows in the Deep and Johnny Hedlund’s. The two songs are rather straightforward and once you’ve written it’s close in style to Grave and Unleashed there’s no much more that can be added. Except maybe that Mort Douce also have some great guitar leads which, even with all those revivalist bands copying the Swedish Death Metal sound, tend to disappear over time.
The MCD The Valley of Blood and Death should come any time soon and it will be a good test to see what this band is capable of. With most tapes of this demo already sold out, you probably won’t have much choice anyway than to wait for it to be released.
