MORGUE CITY

morgue city - bio



Morgue City is a band that has gone through many many changes in sound and personnel. Like any successful project in the entertainment world it must be made up of resilient and determined people. This is the case with Morgue City. The band that has a rock attack intensity as well as a more sinister edge as it delves into the darker realms of noiz and it's concurrent drones. Some of the Morgue City sound is very pop rock oriented but there is always a deviant grind of sound laced in the song work. The band consists of two musicians with a very long history in the music business. Founder, SPIKE the Percussionist, is known from a long list of projects that include Astrogenic Hallucinauting, Childman, Doggebi, Delicate Terror and as the music director for the world renowned flesh suspension group Constructs of Ritual Evolution - CoRE. The lead guitar and vocals are handled by Raul who is a multi instrumentalist and has a long history of studio work and touring. Raul hails from such bands as M-87 and was the former bass player for Bozo Porno Circus. The result is a musical conglomeration both hauntingly familiar and refreshingly new as well as powerful and beautifully dark. Combine the likes of everything from classical to jazz and doom to power noiz with catchy lyrics, sophisticated beats, and musically diverse melodies and the result is Morgue City.

*Morgue City - Soulless - CD*

(Morgue City) Da 'Teve is rockin' out to dis hard n' heavy ass kickin' band. I bet dey get more tang den' day can handle with deir drum and guitar assault on da brain. Da 'Teve would love to be at one of deir concerts so I could jump into da mosh pit with all da fine ladies and have dier lady humps & bumps rub up against me. Dis would be especially great on da opening jam "Bulletproof" in dat it's a good song to grind to. It's also a good song overall. In fact, da whole CD rocks, especially da tune "Nature of the Beast." Da 'Teve can't help but ta sing Da nature of da 'Teve" when ever dat song comes on.

-- 'Teve (2007)



REVIEW FROM BLACK ANGEL PRODUCTIONS

Morgue City is a Texas based band comprised of former members of M-87, Delicate Terror and Marfreles. The band has just released their debut disc entitled Soulless through Noiz Temple Records. After drowning myself in the album for a few days I've emerged unscathed and slightly amused. For the most part, Morgue City is a full on Metal ensemble hellbent on bringing back noisy music to the forefront. Fans of Lords Of The New Church, The Jesus Lizard and Bad Brains need only apply. That's not to say the rest of the world won't embrace Morgue City, but the large amount of effects used here might hamper those not familiar with the aforementioned.

Personally, I'm not a huge fan of effects usage myself, specifically on vocal work - it hinders the listener from hearing the true voice of the frontman and more often than not, covers up the fact that he can't really sing. I can't say that's the case with Morgue City, as I've not really heard enough of vocalist, Roberts' true voice. However, the music on Soulless rips and more than makes up for it. "The River", "Nature Of The Beast" and "Where's The Disco At" are all tracks that'll get you up and out of your seat any day of the week and ready to ROCK! I recommend giving them a look, you might just find your next favorite band.
