FALL OF SERAPHS (France) signed to Memento Mori!!!
In our endless quest to push and support current underground acts that perpetuate the odor of vintage Death Metal, we´re extremely thrilled to announce a new signing: FALL OF SERAPHS, from France.

FALL OF SERAPHS was summoned in the Bordeaux area, back in 2014, and is comprised of a bunch of active musicians who also play or played in underground acts such as ADX, Manzer, Ossuaire, Simulacre, Ad Patres, Reverence and Quintessence, among many others. So far, the band´s discography consists on the debut EP, "Destroyer of World", released in 2017, and a split with their old pals in Trepanator, titled "Incarnation of Torture", released the following year.

FALL OF SERAPHS´ brand of Death Metal is anchored in the tradition of yore, relying on heaviness, malignancy and non-excessive technicality, shrouded in total and almost palpable blackness, and displaying a remarkable sense of vitality and dynamism that always keeps the listener busy and wondering what´s coming next in their -apparently- everlasting feast of headbang-inducing riffs and sharp -yet beautifully- executed leads.

FFO: Morbid Angel, Deicide, Vader, Immolation, Krabathor, Angelcorpse...

Memento Mori will unleash the CD version of their debut full-length in late 2022 / early 2023. Further details to follow in the coming months. Meanwhile, make sure to give them a like on Facebook and listen to their previous output (links below).

Discography:
"Destroyer of Worlds" EP (2017)
"Incarnation of Torture" split w/ Trepanator (2018)

OUT NOW AND SHIPPING!!!
INANNA - Void of Unending Depths CD [MEMENTO-CXIV]
The highly anticipated 3rd full-length by this Chilean band. In a weird and horrific hallucination, guitarist/songwriter Diego Ilabaca received the revelation to create new music. Still in his teen years, he came up with the idea of fusing his favorite albums, Sepultura´s Morbid Visions and Morbid Angel´s Altars of Madness, with the mysticism and transcendence of the long and amazingly structured compositions of his 70´s Prog-Rock heroes. It took a long time to find the right musicians to realize that vision. Once he did, and like the powerful gods of the Sumerian pantheon, Inanna came to life from the netherworld in 2000, obsessed with the early technical Death Metal acts such as Atheist, Cynic, Death and Pestilence, and plagued with the evil brutality of Suffocation, Deicide, Morbid Angel, Immolation and Gorguts. Even though inspired by those acts, this four-piece entity walk a path of uniqueness through their own spheres and interdimensional portals. Unlike other ridiculously over-the-top, ultra-complex, soulless bands, Inanna seek inspiration in the outer worlds and the obscure abysses of the unknown, via demented growls, the nightmarish writings of H.P. Lovecraft, mythology and ancient lore. Malice, death and insanity, the human mind and Cthulhu spells also lurk deep within the band´s concept, like eerie sea tales from a distant century that one can only whisper in fear. After two albums and many a stage hit by Diego Ilabaca (guitars), Max Neira (bass/vocals), Carlos Fuentes (drums/guitars), and Cristobal Gonzalez (guitars) over the band´s years of existence, Inanna are now ready to unleash their 3rd full-length opus, Void of Unending Depths. Immediately upon pressing "play", it is crystal clear: Inanna have delivered a masterwork in Void of Unending Depths. While not betraying their core sound they´ve patiently perfected all these years -a swirling maelstrom of bent riff logic, angular speed, world-eating vocal dementia and otherworldly atmosphere- on this 3rd album do the Chileans convey a confidence of vision and execution that puts them in the upper echelons of Death Metal´s elite. Indeed, it is still proudly Death Metal in name and deed -and same goes for the album´s production and mix/mastering, all courtesy of Fuentes- but Inanna imaginatively weave wonderous, horrifying sensations into the nearly hour-long work that verily transport the listener to dread landscapes on the very thresholds of the imagination, or, at its very depths, a certain "lunar ocean" if you will. For these waves are wayward and turbulent, twisting with a madness only known to their creators; we are simply helpless to fight against that terrible tide. Respite comes, albeit briefly (and beautifully), in spiraling clean-toned fusion breaks, painting yet more rich hues onto that Death Metal titan... Hearing is believing, but Void of Unending Depths is guaranteed to be one of Death Metal´s mightiest records this year. Perhaps one need only to peer deeply into the vivid cover artwork courtesy of Daniel Hermosilla to get a visual clue into Void of Unending Depths´ madness/mastery. No other words necessary: Inanna have delivered a modern classic!

INTOLERANCE - Dark Paths of Humanity CD [MEMENTO-CXV]
The terrific debut full-length by this Spanish band. The Death Metal mongrels collectively known as Intolerance hail from Zaragoza, the same city that Ataraxy are natives of. Spawned back in 2015, this quartet´s intent is to pay homage to timeless Death Metal and the fetid stench that exuded from the malicious tones of the bands that populated the scene and helped define the genre back in the late 80´s and the early 90´s. Nothing fancy or wimpy here: only demise and putrefaction to be found when you creep in Intolerance´s mortuary. After a demo in 2016 and an EP in 2020, now you can creep deepest into Intolerance´s mortuary with their debut full-length, Dark Paths of Humanity. Just as they did on their preceding records, with Dark Paths of Humanity do Intolerance honor the old ways of Death Metal, and proceed to add their own gutted and grimy personality to it. No more but definitely no less, Dark Paths of Humanity is a Death Metal record for Death Metal maniacs, by Death Metal maniacs. But Intolerance´s subtly nuanced and surprisingly dynamic blend of such synthesizes the best elements of classic Bolt Thrower, Grave, Asphyx, Morgoth, Entombed, Convulse, Obituary and Unleashed. Think 1991 and you´re in their wheelhouse, but then you´ll be utterly crushed by their tank-tread of a sound, world-eating and wondrously so. Again, nothing fancy or wimpy here! Completed by cover art courtesy of CL Artworks and featuring devastatingly era-authentic production, with mastering by Javier Felez at Moontower Studios, Intolerance dredges up the oldest, richest dirt with their Dark Paths of Humanity!

ACID BIRTH - Pleasures of Flesh / The Divine Grotesque CD [MEMENTO-CXVI]
A CD that compiles the two EP´s spawned by this up and coming, promising U.S. band so far, previously only available on digital since their late November 2021 release. Acid Birth is an enigmatic two-piece act composed of Morg (guitars, bass, vocals) and Tomb (drums, vocals) that hails from the boggy swamps of New Orleans. Accordingly, their strain of Death/Doom Metal is drenched in miasmatic heaviness, wallowing in slime and emitting a moldy odor that shall delight the most demanding palates. Death and decay finds us all. Iniquitous indulgence taunts our minds. Revel in this savage world of ours amongst the rot and filth that Acid Birth provides. Totally recommended to fans of Mortiferum, Spectral Voice, Gatecreeper, Cerebral Rot, Apparition, Wharflurch...
