MORTIFICATION Scribe Of The Pentateuch (2012-2013) CD

Melbourne's own Mortification have always occupied a strange and singular corner of the metal universe, a band that somehow out-heavied most of their secular peers while citing scripture chapter and verse. Scribe of the Pentateuch collects material from their 2012 to 2013 output, deep into the band's long post-resurrection run.

If you've never gone down the Mortification rabbit hole, you're missing one of Australian heavy metal's genuinely bizarre and genuinely committed stories. Steve Rowe and company built a whole world of extreme Christian metal that owed nothing to the American CCM machine and everything to the grinding, sludging underground. This is Australian-made heavy music history, and it belongs in any serious collection of the country's metal legacy.

Format: CD. Genre: Extreme/Christian Metal. Origin: Australia.
