WARFATHER Orchestrating The Apocalypse [CD]

Orchestrating The Apocalypse, the eagerly-awaited debut album from ex-Morbid Angel frontman Steve Tucker’s newest death metal outfit, WARFATHER, is finally out. The new project fronted by guitarist/vocalist Steve Tucker sees the man back to fronting a death metal outfit, over a decade after his departure from Morbid Angel, and over two years since his participation as a vocalist and writer in the well-received Nader Sadek project. After recruiting a crew of internationally-based executioners to complete the WARFATHER lineup, the band recorded the album at Cincinnati-based TME Studios, with Tucker handling recording duties, after which it was finalized at Maor Applebaum Mastering. With over forty minutes of material, Orchestrating The Apocalypse brutalizes in a relentless style that builds on the work laid on the three Tucker-fronted Morbid Angel albums -- Formulas Fatal To The Flesh, Gateways To Annihilation and Heretic -- delivering an intense, debilitating performance while infusing unique even bizarre atmospheric elements, elevating the album to a cutting-edge status. Housed in a six-panel digipak containing a 12-page booklet with lyrics. [Greyhaze]
