Wretched (Shawn Browning) with ghoulish support have provided another delicious morsel of musical Turkish delight. The lyrical twist is in full force again in such tracks as “Zombieland,” “The Beast Within” and the delightful title track. \u00a0If one doesn\u2019t wish to dissect the deeper meaning of the lyrics, taking them as face value is an option as well. For me that has always been Grave Robber\u2019s charm, how will some aspect of one\u2019s Christian life be transformed into a classic horror film!! The Re-animator lives!!!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \n The production this time out is handled by the more than aptly abled somnambulist<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Tim Bushong. With guitars that crunch and a driving bass that delivers punchy tones, the stringed instruments sound glorious. Jim Chaffin (Deliverance, The Crucified) provided assistance in regards to the drums and again he shines with a solid performance. \u00a0Vocally, Wretched delivers another truly horrifying (get the pun) vocal performance which should have you ghouls jumping for joy.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \n Musically taking a page more from the Ramones than The Misfits this time, the melodies are memorable with a magical staying power. Just imagine Bela Lugosi looking into your eyes with his hand outstretched while saying \u201cThe Evil Dead\u2026 whooooa whoooa.\u201d Hypnotized, you have no choice but to obey as those songs are embedded in your memory to do their will. “Zombieland,” “Into the Pit,” and “The Night Evelyn Came out of Her Grave” leave a lasting impression that only a Svengoolie (or Svengali) can undue.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \n Clocking in at a shade less than 30 minutes these tomb raiders provide a wealth of musical enjoyment for those who have the courage to enter the domain of the living dead. Grave Robber again shows why they come out on top of the tilled earth. Escaping the Grave<\/span> is an album that deserves your undivided attention and your hard earned money.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \n \n \n \n \n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Prophets of punk -infused metal with a lyrical twist have returned!!
