Forged deep in the molten bowels of the very birthplace of Metal, Birmingham’s MORGUE ORGY are the UK’s last hope for melodic death metal. Not content with finding infamy in, of all places, the BBC hit game show Pointless, the band are back with the forthcoming release of their video and single ‘The Last of the Summer Wine’ ahead of their appearance at Bloodstock Festival (13:30, Sunday, Sophie Lancaster Stage).
Comments Dr Morguey, “The title of this song has no relevance to the lyrical content really whatsoever. Although it is sang in the chorus, it is merely just a nod to the British TV show, ‘The Last of the Summer Wine’. It is actually loosely based on the 1976 film ‘Bloodsucking Freaks’. A travelling theatre group go from town to town entertaining spectators with their gruesome act. But what the audience don’t know, is that the girls they see getting cut up on stage are truly screaming in agony and that the blood is real.”
Quite.
Since forming in 2008 Morgue Orgy have evolved at a blistering pace, leading to a ferocious inter-band chemistry and a debut album, The Last Man on Earth, which was released on Christmas day 2013 for free and was shat out of hell with raw energy, exhilarating intensity and aggression. The album is a lyrical morbid crawl through the myths and legends surrounding witchcraft, child disappearances, sea creatures, zombies, marijuana and the long running British sitcom Last of the Summer Wine. Combining lush diatonic harmony and the thrashy bite of Carcass with the modern sensibilities and razor-sharp riffage of The Black Dahlia Murder, and the ability to move from grandiose neoclassical keyboard solos to furious grindesque two minute blasts, Morgue Orgy’s formidable live show has garnered them a coveted slot at Bloodstock Open Air and they’ve shared the stage with the likes of Anaal Nathrakh, Evile and the Rotted.
