Do you like it dark, brutal and fucking old school? Yeah, well then get
this fantastic MCD by US Deathers FUNEBRARUM who are (as the name might
suggests) heavily inspired by the old Finnish Death Metal legends
FUNEBRE or DEMIGOD. Beside these Scandinavian influences one can
recognize slight doses of sick and sinister American acts like AUTOPSY
or INCANTATION in FUNEBRARUM’s cocktail of death. Each of the five
relatively long songs (from 5 – 8 minutes) is excellent in itself and
varies between aggressive blasting, unholy Doom-parts with short
keyboard accents like on DEMIGOD’s debut and typical old school
straightness. The vocals are deep yet flexible and especially in the
slow passages sound as morbid as DEMIGOD’s original vocalist Esa Linden –
great job, Daryl Kahan!!! The guitar work deserves to be positively
mentioned here as well, because there are some really good Death Metal
riffs to be discovered in songs like ‘Adoration Of Abscessed Cadavers’
or the closing ‘Depths Of Misery’. Also that the MCD is as long as many
albums that are thrown onto the market has to be honored in this review.
To sum it up, FUNEBRARUM’s “Beneath The Columns Of Abandoned Gods” is a
valuable Death Metal release, that summons up the intensity and
darkness, that made the ancient days of this genre so special and
fascinating. To get a copy of this morbid offering check the mailorders
