Radio Free Satan this week, 6-29

Monster covers Radio Free Satan with more tributes this week on The Morgue. Satan's broadcasting booth is rocked, and rocked hard, by the sounds of Gooseflesh as they whip out Sepultura's Slave New World, Luciferion decides to Fight Fire With Fire, Earthcorpse provided some of Burzum's Lost Wisdom. This can go on and on as this show provided a great number of 'less than known' metal bands hitting in with some great tracks of tribute, hell; Burden of Grief and Dimension Zero even found their way on this autopsy!

In addition to these great artists, the metal heavies also weighed in as Children of Bodom redid The Ramones' Somebody Put Something in my Drink, Entombed followed the punk cover format with The Misfits and played Hollywood Babylon and Marduk did the same by covering Samhain's Macabre!

With all of this musical violence, it is tough to do anything more than sit back and listen...

Presenting: THE Ninja!

Welcome, everyone, to the maiden voyage of the S.S. Ninja (blogging on my own)..., aiding the Morgue fleet of destroyers in the murky waters of the mundane world to destroy false hopes and bring Metal to the ailing third- world minds of those who think they don't need the magic it provides. As a rather busy Ninja, I don't often get the news of the world, but you can look to me to provide provocative insights into the music universe (Cuz' if it's one thing a Ninja knows well, it's wailing guitars... and killing). Methinks you no believe me? Observe, and be amazed: As a tribute to Monster's fascination with japan and certain types of vending machines, I acquired a copy of the debut album from The Land Of The Rising Sun's very own Grief Of War, "Worship". In my opinion, worship is what this album deserves because what better way to enhance one's Ninja skills than by listening to Japanese Thrash Metal? With a skillful combination of what seems like every style of thrash I've ever heard and solos like a bloody samurai sword, it's just one whirlwind after another, great for extended swordfight scenes and violent lovemaking. Tracks of note are the title track "Worship", and "Midnight Sun" that makes me miss being a boy back home, where that's actually a true occurence. Anyway, hope everyone enjoyed my tribute to Michael Jackson and were as creeped out as everyone in the booth. If you missed it, I'm sorry but you truly missed out.

If you didn't tune in to The Morgue Radio Show on KWCW 90.5fm in the Walla Walla area, you missed a complete hearse full of depravity and vulgarity! More importantly, why the hell weren't you tuned in?!

Accompanying Monster, Violet, Butcher, Ninja, and Goblin this autopsy were attending morticians Blade, Blondie, and Tiger as well as former KWCW DJs Mikey Mike and Wraithmistress visiting from Portland, Oregon. Needless to say, the DJ booth was crammed with human flesh!

On the discussion table, Violet discussed a local event in which a man purchased fuel from a local convenience store and then proceeded to light himself on fire. This prompted discussion on suicide rates and the economy's effect on said numbers. Another bit of discussion on the table was the recent deaths of both Farrah Fawcett and Michael Jackson in which, nearly every Morgue DJ had some feeling or another. Lastly, more dirty love was discovered in the Ninja family tree!

On the music level, the show was kicked off with a brand new Devildriver track as well as new Graves of Valor. The Morgue morticians had to work very hard to keep the energy high enough to match the opening tracks and so, Despised Icon, Bloodbath, Embalmer, Turisas, Brother Von Doom, and Einherjer were ripped out, among others, including a fresh one from 1349!

The discussions were great, the metal music was outrageous, all in all, this was another can't miss Morgue Radio Show autopsy!

Morgue DJs unite! kinda

Just as the radio broadcast version of the Morgue Radio Show acts a free flowing platform for all of the DJs associated with the show to speak out however the hell they choose, this blogspot, The Morgue's official website (for the time being), has opened its virtual doors to all DJs of The Morgue to say equally stupid things online!
(Now, finding out if these music munching morticians actually USE this site remains to be seen).

If the devil possesses their idle hands long enough to get them to type their morbid misgivings, you should hear from Violet, Butcher, and Ninja alongside the mutilated Monster...we will see about getting other DJs along for the ride, such as CS and Goblin. For now, well...all you cadavers have to deal with this macabre Monster indulging in mortuary delights.

Rose Funeral review by Ninja

Rose Funeral via last.fm

Hi Everybody! Your friendly neighborhood Ninja here, to fling some throwing stars of musical wisdom right in your face. Are you a fan of great bands like Cannibal Corpse, Vomitory, & Deicide? Rose Funeral's "The Resting Sonata" offers all that and more, rolled up in a ball of bloody guts for your demented pleasure. With crushing grooves and insane two- tone vocals, you have your pick of songs like the cannibalistic "Created To Kill", the blackness of "Left To Rot", or the everyday brutality of "Buried Beneath". The most impressive part of this whole album is the fact that it's totally savage clean through, but when you hit the middle of the last track, you get hit with a totally power metal yodel (for want of a better word); it's awesome! This is a good album for a bad day, and really perks you up when you're pissed off and have to slip through the shadows to wreak a little vengeance on all who wronged you that day.

Morgue Metal this week

Image via Wikipedia

This week sees the maniacal return of The MORGUE Radio Show on KWCW! Now that the summer schedule has begun, so has the metal morticians' reign of terror. Monster and Violet caught up on a backlog of request lists which included metal from Cattle Decapitation, Cannibal Corpse, Overkill, Evile, Possessed, Exodus and more. Monster popped out some trivia style questions to fellow his DJs such as, "What is the most outlandish religion," "What is the single most frustrating thing about the government," and "What do you consider the greatest threat to mankind?"
Violet pulled out a couple episodes of Neurotically Yours from Illwill Press in which, Germain has called the fat help hotline and found out that eating in the bathroom is a sign of obesity. No DJ had admitted to this, though Ninja alluded to it and, through more prodding, we uncover a bigger mystery about Ninja and his lover CS...are they brother and sister?!

Meanwhile, on the Radio Free Satan front, Monster plays some insane covers like Slayer's Raining Blood by Malevolent Creation; Dimmu Borgir hitting Accept's Metal Heart; Emperor covering Bathory's A Fine Day to Die; and Sepultura's Troops of Doom as recreated by Dimension Zero.
Next week will see Dark Funeral and Vader among others.

LOL Cats and Immortal

Monster and Goblin got tired of their daily lives and attacked the internet.
Here is their first effort at digitally flipping off others on the net.

Error in scheduling

This week, The MORGUE is still confined to online only options of radio broadcasting. That situation will be rectified in the coming days.

Online, due to managerial issues (on Monster's end) The MORGUE will not be broadcasting a new episode of The MORGUE on Radio Free Satan. The plus side is that you will be able to enjoy a quality episode that has been previously released (or for those that are not politically-fuck-off-correct, you are stuck with a rerum)!

Don't sweat bullets because The MORGUE will be in proper operating order VERY soon! Even if Monster has to endure some lashings to be certain.

Troubled Times for Troubled Music

With the exception of mainstream heavies such as Slipknot, Slayer, or Disturbed, metal music has seldom met with the success that would enable a musician to be so financially secure that economic crisis is no more of a worry than which cereal to eat for breakfast.
Today's society is still deeply mired in crisis and it has begun to hit the metal world as evidenced by a new turn of events in which German metal label SPV has reportedly submitted an application to commence the German equivalent of Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.

“Normal business will continue even after the application for insolvency.” Manfred Schütz, managing partner, stated. This statement helps eliminate some fear as it shows that the label that has given us great bands like Kreator, Iced Earth, Metal Church, Nuclear Assault, Moonspell, Dio, Type O Negative, and Chthonic (among many others)has no plans on going an y where but up! This may be a tough 25th anniversary, but they plan on having many more!
