Single review: MORS PRINCIPIUM EST – The Lust Called Knowledge

MORS PRINCIPIUM EST - The Lust Called Knowledge

AFM Records

You have to confess that the emphasis is on the “Melodic” when Mors Prncipium Est are described as Melodic Death Metal.

New album, ‘Liberate The Unborn Humanity’, which is an interesting proposition, is due out on 8 April 2022.

The Lust Called Knowledge is the first trailer track.

This fleet of foot, death metal ditty growls all over the notion that MDM is a dark and downbeat genre for deadbeats.

It fairly motors along . . . a tuneful, speeding piano and a spluttering, yet purposeful riff light up the darkness. A climactic chorus convinces us that we should join in. If only we could make out the words.

This could be Lordi’s much more serious big brother.

Roll on the full album.
