Gruesome Posts "Hideous" New Track

"Savage Land" is the forthcoming debut full-length from death metal perpetrators Gruesome.
Featuring within its bestial ranks members of Exhumed, Possessed, Malevolent Creation and Derketa, Gruesome is a supergroup of sorts paying homage to the game-changing sounds of Death's early recordings.

Gruesome was borne out of guitarist/vocalist Matt Harvey (Exhumed) and drummer Gus Rios' (Malevolent Creation) mutual involvement with the Death To All tours. The result is the eight scathing tracks contained on "Savage Land."

Set for release next month, today team Gruesome offers up fourth track "Hideous" for communal absorption. The track is based on 1932 horror film, "Freaks," in which the characters were played by people who worked as carnival sideshow performers and had real deformities. The original version was considered too shocking to be released, and no longer exists.

Rios further elaborates, "'Hideous' was one of the last songs to be written for the album. By that point Matt had really hit a stride with the writing and this song turned out to be one of our favorites! It seamlessly blends influences from the first three Death albums with even a tiny tip of the hat to Human. Listen closely after the solo section...you'll swear it's 1988 for real! We sincerely hope that everyone enjoys this as much as we did creating it! Hail Chuck [Schuldiner]!"
