CEMETERY URN - The Conquered Are Burned

Australian Barbaric Death Metal from the Grave !!! Melbourne, Australia-based death metallers CEMETERY URN (ex-members of Legendary Evil Legend BESTIAL WARLUST + ABOMINATOR) have released their 2nd full length album, "THE CONQUERED ARE BURNED".

This fresh new installment of brutality continues the bands self proclaimed style of "AUSTRALIAN BARBARIC DEATH METAL".

DAMON BLOODSTORM formerly of Australian War Metal legends BESTIAL WARLUST leads the assault with undoubtably the best vokills of his long career. ANDREW GILLON lays down a brutal onslaught of guitars. The lead work on display is at times moody & epic, before launching into the faster almost shreading style that Gillon displayed on the later ABOMINATOR albums. New bassist SQUIZ, formerly of DREADNAUGHT & Tasmanian convict rock aficionados MUSTANG, provides a solid backbone to the Aussie juggernaut. Since the debut album "URN OF BLOOD", the band has completed a successful tour of the USA. Playing along side bands such as ANGELCORPSE & GOSPEL OF THE HORNS throughout Chicago, New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Seattle & is scheduled to make a highly anticipated return to the USA in October 2010. CEMETERY URN'S new full length album shows a refinement in the bands style & production techniques, while steering well clear of the modern overproduced sound of today.

This is quite simply, PURE AUSTRALIAN TRUE & BARBARIC DEATH METAL ART ! ! !
