    MORTA SKULD'S SECOND ALBUM OF BRUTAL DEATH / DOOM METAL - ON MID-PRICE CD, INCLUDING BONUS TRACK

    .

    Morta Skuld formed in Milwaukee in 1990, going on to release three albums on Peaceville Records (initially via legendary sub-label Deaf Records) in the early-mid 90's, with the band's debut 'Dying Remains' seeing its release in 1993.

    'As Humanity Fades' was Morta Skuld's follow-up album to their widely hailed debut & surfaced in 1994. Featuring a further evolution of the band's brand of death / doom metal with a fine dose of brutality plus a degree of technicality & consisting of the same line-up headed by band mastermind & guitarist/vocalist, David Gregor, 'As Humanity Fades' was once more recorded at Cornerstone studios, Wisconsin.

    This edition of 'As Humanity Fades' contains remastered audio, plus the rare bonus track, 'Sacrificial Rite'; a demo track which was re-recorded during the album sessions.

    Morta Skuld has enjoyed a period of rejuvenation in recent years, with their 'Wounds Deeper Than Time' & 'Suffer For Nothing' opuses impressing with their catchy & brutal no-nonsense death metal delivery, including a string of tours & high-profile festival appearances in support of the releases.
