Nuclear Winter Records

28/07/2025

Nuclear Winter Records continues to deliver some of the best death metal of 2025 with Mörtual's full length debut. This one has a lot of 90s Tampa influence but has some nuances of its own, with plenty of great leads and scorching solos. Direct and concise, this is death metal at its core essence!

[Cover art by Marcelo Almeida] Happy birthday, America! Lets celebrate by talking about how Central and South America are making the U.S.’ OSDM scene look like a bunch of little baby bi***es. Today’s case study in southern hemisphere excellence is Mortual’s Altar of Brutality. While many an OS...

Devilpriest 'where I am the chalice, be thou the blood' reviewed by Voices From The Darkside Zine

"Bands like MORBID ANGEL, IMMOLATION or INCANTATION can cross your mind when you listen to this. Nothing bad anyone could say. I just felt it was technical for my raw ears at first shot, but once you continue with the massacre, you really started to be part of this brutal mutilation, knowing that the suffering is going to be eternal."

Desekryptor 'Sarcophagal Corridors' reviewed by Voices From The Darkside Zine

"These four songs, clocking at 12 minutes, showcase that cavernous, dank and putrid style of Death Metal that oozes malicious vibes and creates an oppressive atmosphere yet sustaining a high level of aggression and speed that punishes the listener non stop."

REVIEW

Here's a review on Mörtual 's 'altar of brutality' on Ominous Vomit Blogspot

Rated 9/10 !

"It reminds me of the best of the '90s, particularly Deicide for some reason, even though they sound nothing like them. It's the energy of the music itself, it has the same velocity and inertia that their early recordings (and the most recent one) had... I encourage anyone who is a fan of real death metal to give this a listen and more importantly, buy the mo********er. You won't be sorry."
