Remastered re-release of the debut full-length studio album by legendary German Death Metal band.
With their promising EPs "Resurrection Absurd" and "The Eternal Fall", released in 1989 and 1990, Morgoth stood in the shadow of their big idols Death and the uprising European force Pestilence. In 1991, they tried to step out of this shadow by releasing a full-length album with a Doomier approach. "Cursed" belongs to the good and worthy products of a time when Death Metal was both Brutal and Melodic, without needing cheesy categorizations such as "Brutal Death Metal" or "Melodeath". To promote the album, the band supported Kreator and Biohazard on a US tour and another European tour with Immolation and Massacre.
Before Morgoth wandered into Progressive Death Metal on "Odium", then to Alternative Metalcore/Techno on the "Feel Sorry For The Fanatic", they were a good Death Metal band in the veins of Obituary and Death. They used a bit of that weird Possessed riffing and the Beccarra "glass gargling" vocals, but these guys were quite a bizarre entity. And that's just why they're so good.
The band split up in 1998, but reunited in 2010. In May 2018, the band announced that they would go on hold following their performance at the Chronical Moshers Open Air on June 8th, 2018. On December 17th, 2020, via the band's Facebook page, Morgoth announced that they were splitting up for good.
Limited Edition re-release features bonus-video-enhancement “Morgoth Live In Frankfurt, September 9th, 1991”.
Century Media Records Ltd./Rawforce Records, 1991/2006/2014 (RAWFORCE 100-57). Made in Chile.
