FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
CDN Records Welcomes Buffalo’s Morgue Terror for Upcoming Full-Length Release
CDN Records is proud to announce the signing of Buffalo-based death metal force Morgue Terror , gearing up for the release of their highly anticipated full-length album. Known for their unrelenting brutality and frostbitten riffs, Morgue Terror has been carving a vicious path through the underground metal scene since their formation.
Hailing from the frozen tundra of Buffalo, New York, Morgue Terror began as the brainchild of Dave (guitar) and Steve (bass, vocals), who crafted their debut EP Morgue Terror . With the addition of Dustin on drums in November 2023, the band’s single “Chopped Up Chum” set the tone for what fans would come to expect: relentless, no-holds-barred death metal.
Their sophomore EP, Violent And Murderous Thoughts , dropped on August 23, 2024, expanding the band’s ferocious sound. Since then, lineup changes have only strengthened the unit: Logan (Lacerate) on drums and Anthony on bass have joined, bringing fresh intensity and solidifying a new era for the band.
Morgue Terror has shared stages with underground death metal heavyweights like Internal Bleeding , NecroticGoreBeast , Internal Suffering , Malignancy , and Frog Mallet , earning a reputation for bone-crushing live performances. Their latest singles – “Gore Harvest,” “Feasting On The Dead,” “Terror In The Morgue,” and “Cryptid Skin” – are available now, giving fans a taste of the merciless assault to come.
With CDN Records behind them, Morgue Terror is primed to deliver a full-length album that will set the standard for modern death metal. Stay tuned for release details, pre-orders, and upcoming live dates. https://cdnrecords.com/label-artists/morgue-terror/

All-star heavy metal band DEATH DEALER and Massacre Records are deeply saddened to share difficult news concerning guitarist and founding member Ross “The Boss” Friedman.

The band has issued the following official statement:
“We are devastated by the news that our brother, Ross the Boss, has been diagnosed with ALS.

From the very first day this band came together, we have operated as more than musicians, we are a brotherhood. That bond, that loyalty, and that respect for one another will never change.

This diagnosis, however, inevitably changes the road ahead for Death Dealer in terms of new music and live performances. Ross is not someone who can be replaced, nor would we ever try.

His contribution to heavy metal is monumental, timeless, and deeply woven into the fabric of this genre. His legacy stands on its own and will continue to inspire generations.

Right now, our focus is not on stages or studios, but on standing beside our brother as he faces this battle with the strength and courage that has always defined him.

We ask the metal community to keep Ross in your thoughts and to honour him the way he has always honoured the music, with passion, loyalty, and heart. We stand with Ross. Always.”

Massacre Records stands fully united with DEATH DEALER during this time. Ross “The Boss” Friedman is not only a legendary guitarist whose influence has shaped generations of heavy metal musicians worldwide, but also a respected artist whose dedication, integrity and passion embody the very spirit of the genre.

Recently, DEATH DEALER released their album Reign Of Steel.
