CANDARIAN (Costa Rica) 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: CANDARIAN, from Costa Rica.

Hailing from one of the most fertile scenes in recent years, CANDARIAN was spawned in 2020 when Christopher (guitar) and Jose Pablo (bass/vocals) decided to start a new project inspired by old school Death Metal from the early 90´s, like Autopsy and Incantation, with lyrics revolving around themes of gore and horror. After some rehearsals, Pablo (drums) and Felipe (guitar) were recruited and the lineup was then completed. The following months, the band focused on finishing their debut demo, titled "Stagnant Livor Mortis", and presenting it live throughout the local scene.

CANDARIAN´s malignant, odious, reckless and groove-laden Death Metal could bring long-buried corpses bubbling to the surface in a quagmire of rottenness. It´s a putrescent and slimy soundscape of horror and doom that goes above the basic old school worship, while including all the necessary filth that vintage Death Metal needs, to create something with a haunting quality too, making for a much more unforgettable listen. Prepare to bang your head and drudge through the mulched layers of corpses that CANDARIAN leave in their wake. The time is nigh to become possessed by real terror and carnage!

CANDARIAN´s debut full-length is due out by mid 2025. Memento Mori will release the CD version and Me Saco Un Ojo Records will take care of the LP, tape and digital versions. Further details to follow in the coming months. Meanwhile, make sure to follow them on Instagram and listen to their previous output (links below).

THAUMATURGY (U.S.A.) 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: THAUMATURGY, from U.S.A.

THAUMATURGY was spawned in the Midwestern United States by an enigmatic musician that goes under the alias KT, driven by the urge to play a vicious blend of dark, doom-laden, chasmic and cavernous Death Metal, taking influence from a wide range of outsider music. THAUMATURGY attempt to push the boundaries beyond the genre´s forerunners in order to invoke contemplation upon the super-mundane realms that their name implies. Previously an outright Death/Doom Metal act with a darkened edge, the band has morphed into an entity whose musical offering is crammed with furious, ripping riffs, contrasted by crushing, echoing doom passages, as well as a surprising element of dark melody, evoking comparisons to the more diabolical early bands from Sweden, such as Necrophobic and Grotesque, although combining that approach with the tenebrosity and the murkiness of Incantation and Krypts, the violent and chaotic assault of Morbid Angel, the agressiveness of Dutch bands like Sinister and Pestilence, the modern approach of acts like Grave Miasma and Cruciamentum, and even the sheer lightlessness of bands such as Demoncy and Adversarial.

Active since 2021, in which year the band released its debut EP, titled "Charnel Gnosis", THAUMATURGY has thus far released one full-length album in addition to the forementioned EP, ominously titled "Tenebrous Oblations". Now a power-trio after the addition of TG and DS to their ranks, we can only expect a further descent into despair when following the future development of this band.

Memento Mori will unleash the CD version of their 2nd full-length in 2025. Further details to follow in the coming months. Meanwhile, make sure to check them out on Instagram and listen to their previous output (links below).
