Noisy, aggravated, sludgy crust MORDEO’s sound is a violent collision of d-beat fury and suffocating sludge with walls of abrasive noise. Direct, deliberate, and relentlessly hostile, songs stretch out, twist through multiple sections, and make full use of dual guitars without losing the immediacy of hardcore aggression. MORDEO exists to reflect the ugliness of the present moment and turn it into something communal, loud, and impossible to tune out
While comparisons land somewhere between a d-beat–driven Full Of Hell, the bleak crust of His Hero Is Gone, the raw drive of early Black Breath, and the oppressive weight of Primitive Man, MORDEO’s identity comes from the collision of its members’ musical backgrounds. Punk and hardcore roots grind against sludge and doom sensibilities, while death metal influences add density and force. The result is music that feels both feral and deliberate – fast when it needs to cut, slow when it needs to crush.
