MORNALAND/ ABOMINATOR Prelude To World Funeral CD

Split releases from 1997 don't get more underground than this. Two bands, two countries, one shared commitment to making something as hostile as possible before anyone was really paying attention.

Mornaland brought Swedish black/death metal brutality formed out of 1995, all bleak atmosphere and murderous tempo. Abominator brought Australia's answer, founded in 1994 out of the same Melbourne black/death scene that incubated some of the southern hemisphere's most unrelenting metal. Prelude to World Funeral is a document of both bands in their early, hungry years before the underground caught up with them. Essential Australian metal history pressed into one disc.
