NEWLY REMASTERED, WITH BONUS COMMENTARY DISC.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the early breed of US death metal acts, Autopsy formed in 1987 in San Francisco. Drummer\/vocalist Chris Reifert had gained initial recognition with Floridian genre pioneers Death \u0026amp; his participation on the classic debut, ‘Scream Bloody Gore’ before this new morbid creation was birthed. Autopsy released 4 albums on Peaceville Records in the early part of their career – beginning with the legendary debut, ‘Severed Survival’, in 1989 – before disbanding in 1995, with members going on to become the stalwarts of sickodelia in Abscess.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAutopsy triumphantly \u0026amp; officially returned from the grave after a 15 year hiatus with the 2010 EP, ‘The Tomb Within’. This was followed by the release of the band’s fifth studio album, ‘Macabre Eternal’ in 2011, as the group celebrated a new era of popularity \u0026amp; creativity. This reverence continues to this day as Autopsy itself nears its 40th anniversary, \u0026amp; still features the longstanding core trio of Chris Reifert, Eric Cutler, \u0026amp; Danny Coralles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e‘Mental Funeral’ was Autopsy’s second studio album, originally released back in 1991, \u0026amp; is rightly hailed as one of the greatest death metal albums of all time with its unhinged \u0026amp; uncompromising collection of odes to brutality \u0026amp; depravity, wrapped up in its highly distinctive raw, organic production.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e‘Mental Funeral’ was recorded at Different Fur Studios in late 1990, with engineering work conducted by Ron Rigler. The iconic artwork appeared courtesy of Kev Walker, who had already provided the (at the time) controversial cover for Autopsy’s debut, ‘Severed Survival’.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis special 35th anniversary double-disc edition of ‘Mental Funeral’ contains remastered audio courtesy of Greg Wilkinson at Earhammer Studios, \u0026amp; includes a special bonus commentary disc, with Chris Reifert, Eric Culter \u0026amp; Danny Coralles all sharing their recollections of the writing \u0026amp; recording process for the album, \u0026amp; its inspirations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTRACKLIST\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"disc-no\"\u003eDisc 1\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwisted Mass Of Burnt Decay\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn The Grip Of Winter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFleshcrawl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTorn From The Womb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlaughterday\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDead\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRobbing The Grave\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHole In The Head\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDestined To Fester\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBonesaw\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDark Crusade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMental Funeral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"disc-no\"\u003eDisc 2\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwisted Mass Of Burnt Decay ( With Commentary )\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn The Grip Of Winter ( With Commentary )\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFleshcrawl ( With Commentary )\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTorn From The Womb ( With Commentary )\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlaughterday ( With Commentary )\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDead ( With Commentary )\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRobbing The Grave ( With Commentary )\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHole In The Head ( With Commentary )\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDestined To Fester ( With Commentary )\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBonesaw ( With Commentary )\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDark Crusade ( With Commentary )\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMental Funeral ( With Commentary )\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"ORCHARD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48091829829850,"sku":"AUTOPSY-MENTAL-FUNERAL-2CD-0229","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/4709\/4490\/files\/0801056740229_7B02_7D.webp?v=1782238541","url":"https:\/\/metaledgemag.com\/products\/autopsy-mental-funeral-2cd","provider":"Metal Edge","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
