Graveyard Mutants

Afterlife Love Machine 

(Crazy Love Records)



Like directors of vintage fright movies, these fiends contrive to establish sinister atmosphere. They do so by maintaining a middle-ranged tempo that heightens dramatic tension and with a starkness that recalls early Psycho. A lesser trio would founder whereas this robust one murders, its measured onslaught effectively underscoring ghoulish tellings. Monster-credibility is further affirmed when "Bloodlust's" lycanthropic protagonist repeatedly intones the cautionary formulation featured in Universal's Larry Talbot prowls. 

This 4-track 7" vinyl EP is numbered and available in five colors.

Recommended: "Afterlife Love Machine," "Bloodlust," "Puzzle Girl," "The Witch"
