Underrated Old School Death Metal - MORPHEUS DESCENDS


Chronicles of the Shadowed Ones is a lesser-known classic.

Hints of Bolt ThrowerAutopsy and Baphomet; to name a few bands.

Morpheus Descends formed in 1992 and is still active today, following a couple of breaks.

What stands out the most about the release is probably the drumming, which is impressive and original in equal measure.

Thanks in no small part to that drumming, the New Yorkers shift between their doomier sections and faster parts exceptionally well.

The EP was self-released on CD and cassette in 1994, and reissued on vinyl by The Crypt in 2015.

You can track down a physical copy here, or download it here.



P.S. These guys have released several other EPs that are also worth checking.
