Soulfucker

MESENTERY already attracted attention in the early 2000s with their first three releases and now, after a break of almost ten years, they announce their comeback with their new album Soulfucker in a combative manner, to be released on February 11, 2022, via Dr. Music Records. Frontman and guitarist Marcel Braun is ready to inject fresh life into the newly formed band from the Hamburg area with the varied ten tracks and their mixture of Death Metal, Thrash as well as other Extreme Metal influences. Between hard old-school riffs, brutal grooves and harmonious melody peaks, diabolic suspense is built up. Soulfucker has been recorded at the legendary Chameleon Recording Studio Hamburg, featuring mastermind Marcel Braun on vocals, guitar and bass and Eryc Botz on drums. Produced by Eike O. Freese (Helloween, Alice Cooper, Heaven Shall Burn), the album is defined by anger and pain about the misbehavior of society. This manifests itself, especially in the title theme, which is based on the unsparing biography Seelenficker, where the author using the pseudonym Natascha traces her relentless, unprettified time on drug-related prostitution and as a crystal meth addict. The album's lyrics are a warning and depict with full harshness and mercilessness what is going on in our sick, self-centered and greedy society. MESENTERY teamed up with English video artist Andy Pilkington of Very Metal Art (Judas Priest, Onslaught, Sortout), which produced viciously direct lyric videos perfectly reflecting the message of each song with a morbid charm. Soulfucker is a treat for underground Death Metal maniacs with its aggressive attitude, the exciting and drastic title theme as well as socio-critical lyrics, not only instrumentally. MESENTERY definitely are not on the scrap heap yet with this straightforward and relentless album and not only fans of bands such as Unleashed, Carcass or Hail Of Bullets should check out this record.
