The next installment in my recent purchase of a job lot of Relapse Records clear vinyl records (all of which are limited to 100 copies and are 'not available to the public' according to the label's website.
'The Way Of All Flesh Is Decay' is the debut LP by a band called End Reign. It's a new(ish) band from a collection of 'veterans', including the vocalist from All Out War, the bass player from Bloodlet, the drummer from Pig Destroyer, and Dom Romeo who runs A389 Records (and who was in Integrity and Pullling Teeth).
I really like the cover art for this LP. Four ghosts walking through a swamp. At least, that's what it looks like to me. Whereas the back cover looks like 4 people in a hot tub, with three others watching.
This also comes with a couple of large fold out inserts. The white one is pretty damn huge. If you look closely you can see that I laid the record on top of it for scale, not that it is easily visible.
I'm gonna say that this sounds probably as you'd expect from looking at the cover and knowing who is in the band. I've been playing this one a fair bit through the dreary month of February, and it's really good. It takes bits from all of the bands that the members have been in and has seemed like the perfect soundtrack to the end of winter.
