MORTUARY - "Agony In Red"

New Release:

MORTUARY’s Agony In Red Is Back: It’s Pissing Off Time Itself

Watch the Video

Okay, let’s get this straight: MORTUARY just dropped a bomb by fully re-recording their 2003 death/grind classic Agony In Red. And no, it's not just some lazy cash-grab. This is the same album that made French extreme metal fans lose their minds back in the day, but now it's been dragged through 2025's production meat grinder (in the best way possible). We're talking Dirk Verbeuren, yes, that Dirk Verbeuren, Megadeth's human drum machine, behind the kit again, Alexis Baudin shredding like it's still 2003, and a sound so massive it makes the original feel like a demo tape. Oh, and they threw in two bonus covers: Slayer's "Chemical Warfare" and Entombed's "About To Die," because why the hell not?

The whole thing was mixed at Hertz Studios (you know, the Polish wizards behind Behemoth and Vader), so expect a sound that's razor-sharp, brutally heavy, and somehow still dripping with that old-school rage. The line-up? A mix of original members and some mystery guests they're teasing, because MORTUARY clearly loves keeping us on our toes. And that new artwork? Fits the 2025 vibe while still feeling like it belongs in a dusty '00s metal zine.

 

Look, if you were there when Agony In Red first dropped, this is your chance to relive the chaos, except now it hits like a freight train. If you're new to this? Well, congratulations, you're about to discover why French death metal doesn't mess around. The album's was out November 24 via Adipocere Records, and honestly, if you don't at least check the clips, you're sleeping on one of the most vicious comebacks of the year.
