Old school Death Metal aficionados have reminded us how relevant the genre still means today in opposition with insanely sophisticated over technical death metal that has kindly poured in the past years. Enthusiastic followers for genuine original death metal have grown in numbers again looking for a bit of fresh air from the coffin !. Undead Prophecies (initially named UNDEAD) was founded by 5 individuals back from the dead with a similar musical vision. They decided to gather reviving forces in order to honor authentic old school Death Metal as initially mastered by bands like POSSESSED, MORBID ANGEL, CELTIC FROST, MASTER, OBITUARY, DEATH... The latter being like one of the main godfathers to the genre, Undead Prophecies has particularly taken it's root in DEATH's majestic, slashing riffs, hammering tempos and those unique dominating guttural vocals. Undead Prophecies are now unleashing their second album 'Sempiternal Void'. Debut album 'False Prophecies' has gathered a roaring response worldwide as DEAFOREVER defined greatly : "This album is a real sledgehammer and should be bought by anybody who loves the early works of Chuck Schuldiner or Possessed. Simple, catchy and stripped down to the bone Death Metal with an impressing technical level !", EMP (Ger) continued as 'The guys have the precision of a Swiss brand-name machinery', ROCK HARD (fr) concluded bluntly : 'A major hit in the face !'. Undead Prophecies are also doing way more than paying tribute to the legends they grew up with, from abrupt yet refined choppy riffings and bashing drums, while undoubtedly straight forward in their approach like in ' I summon demon', they have admittedly come up with an irresistibly catchy songwriting melting the basic influences with further madness and menacing layers like in 'The Souls I haunt'. Undead Prophecies ' own version of VENOM's 'Warhead' track will appear as a bonus track on the CD version.
