Album artwork by: Matt Browning Previous album It's Time...To Rise from the Grave caught a wave of acclaim on TheNeedleDrop's YouTube channel, earned "Best New Music" from Pitchfork, and, most impressively, rocketed to the top of Decibel Magazine's Top 40 Albums of 2022, along with a coveted cover feature. On More Insane, Undeath—featuring Kyle Beam (guitars), Alexander Jones (vocals), Tommy Wall (bass), Jared Welch (guitars), and Matt Browning (drums)—feast on the rotten flesh of brutality, complexity, and depravity. If the gross-out teenage hallucinations of It's Time... rattled death metal's caved-in cranium, More Insane explodes with even sicker vistas. Lyrically, Undeath pick up, in part, where "Necrobionics" and "Enhancing the Dead" left off. Indeed, the undead armies (from space) cause more carnage in "Sutured for War" and "Dead from Beyond". Elsewhere, the New Yorkers summon nightmares from video games (Bloodborne, etc.) on "Cramped Caskets (Necrology)", turn to high fantasy on "Brandish the Blade", and man-eating laboratory demons on "Disattachment of a Prophylactic in the Brain". Unifying themes of murder, weirdos, psychotic people (who kill others), and more lunacy prevail on More Insane. Browning's eye-catching cover art of a splayed head atop an optic white background engulfs all in graphic, blood-soaked glory. The recording of More Insane was hearsed over to American studio wizard Mark Lewis (Cannibal Corpse, The Black Dahlia Murder) at Mark Lewis Audio in Nashville, TN. Undeath and Lewis met after a gig in Alabama. They became fast friends. With the basics out of the way, the group set up a month-long residency at Lewis's studio to nail down More Insane. Undeath and Lewis co-produced, while Lewis handled engineering, mixing, and mastering. "Brandish the Blade", "Disputatious Malignancy", "Dead from Beyond", and the title track are pure, unyielding death brought to horrifying reality by a kick-ass production. Expect Undeath to take More Insane to their diehard fans around the world. Expect more bloodshed, crazier merch, and a ton of fun. In life, there's only Undeath. Only this time, it's More Insane!
