MORTUARY DRAPE - Buried In Time (180g) (+bonus) (2LP)

Cult band Mortuary Drape was formed in Italy in 1986 as a trio, including the now long-standing and sole-remaining member, Wildness Perversion. Highly inspired by the dark arts and combining early influences from bands such as Mercyful Fate and Celtic Frost, Mortuary Drape developed their own unique style, defining themselves as black occult metal and releasing the demo 'Necromancy' in 1987 which spread their name throughout the underground; though it was not until 1992 that their first official release surfaced, with 'Into the Drape'. This was followed by the debut full-length album, the classic 'All The Witches Dance' in 1994. 'Buried in Time' was released in 2004 and was the Italian group's fourth album. Keeping with the dark ambience of their previous efforts whilst venturing into what could be deemed more accessible territory with clearer production values, 'Buried In Time' was still a metallic tour de force of thrashing yet melodic riffing. The album was recorded and mixed at Alpha Omega Studio, Como (Italy) during the summer of 2004. 'Buried In Time' is presented here in newly remastered form, with the process itself overseen by the band, and includes two extra tracks, 'Beyond the Veil' and 'The Envoy'. Mortuary Drape recently completed work on their highly anticipated new album, plus also will be embarking upon extensive live-work in the coming year. Track listing: A 1. Unfading Revenge 2.
