Ohio’s Embalmer continues to be one of my top bands in all of death metal and with them recording their new album, for a 2020 release, I felt it befitting to review their 2016 release, Emanations from the Crypt which recently was spit-shined, polished and vomited out with not only a remastering of the sound […]
