The infamous Italian director Lucio Fulci created many of horror and exploitation cinemaâs most memorable and vivid visions of the supernatural, sadistic and salacious. Zombi 2, The Beyond, City Of The Living Dead, The House By The Cemetery, and more left an indelible impression on the minds of impressionable youths.
The Italian death metal band FULCI was so possessed by their countrymanâs work, they named the band after him, with each album being a concept and tribute based on one of his films. For the bandâs fourth bloodthirsty full-length, and first for 20 Buck Spin after a steadily growing profile in the death metal underground over the last several years, FULCI presents Duck Face Killings, a homage to one of Lucioâs most depraved and reviled films, The New York Ripper.
Musically, FULCI unleashes a barrage of captivatingly gruesome riffs, gory pummeling, murderous slams, low-pitched guttural vocal patterns, and eerie intros and interludes. The bandâs songwriting is consciously fixated on creating the most violent and sharpened music possible to convey the filmâs extreme savagery, imagining a soundtrack for the most grisly and cynical slasher flick ever made. Thereâs a lot of luscious meat on these bones, dripping with hooks and all the colors of Lucio Fulciâs eccentric cinema of cruelty, while the psychotic killer hunts his victims with remorseless perversity and sick gratification, inexplicably quacking in a duckâs voice throughoutâ¦
Sure to be one of the death metal highlights of the year, FULCIâs Duck Face Killings features guest vocal appearances by Lord Goat of legendary hip-hop act Non Phixion on âKnifeâ and Sherwood Webber of infamous death henchmen Skinless on âHuman Scalp Collection,â and saxophone on âIl Miele Del Diavoloâ by Mario Luce.
The album was recorded at Till Deaf Recording Studios, engineered and mixed by Ando Ferraiulo with assistant engineer Angelo Guierriero, with vocal recording and engineering handled by Stefano Santi at SPVN Studio, and was mastered by Arthur Rizk (Power Trip, Cavalera Conspiracy, Tomb Mold). The cover artwork was crafted by Wes Benscoter (Autopsy, Sinister, Mortician, Broken Hope, Nile), conceptualized by Dome Diego and Fiore Stravino, the layout handled by Ascionemagro, and photography was handled by Chiara Meierhofer Muscarà .
FULCIâs âFucked With A Broken Bottleâ visualizer is playing at YouTube HERE, and the song is streaming everywhere including Bandcamp HERE.
20 Buck Spin will release Duck Face Killings on LP, CD, MC, and digital formats August 9th. Preorders and merch are now available at the label webshop HERE and Bandcamp where âRotten Appleâ is also streaming HERE.
