UMUR "Obsequies" is 7" vinyl single release by Swedish death metal act Gorement. It was released through Afterworld Records in 1992. The four tracks on the single are remixed versions of the tracks from the 1991 "Obsequies" demo. The 7" single was limited to 1000 copies on pink vinyl. The four tracks from the 12:10 minutes long single are (in their remixed form) also featured on the two compilation albums "Darkness of the Dead (2004)" and "Within the Shadow of Darkness - The Complete Recordings (2012)".

The music on the single is raw and brutal old school Swedish death metal. The music is well played and the growling is brutal and delivered in a convincing fashion. Compared to the "Human Relic (1991)" demo the sound production is slightly more murky and raw, but it´s not a minus. Actually it´s only a plus and the atmosphere is that much darker because of it. While the tracks on the single are remixed the difference in sound quality between the original demo and the single is marginal. The music style hasn´t changed much but then again there´s only 7 months between the "Human Relic (1991)" demo and the "Obsequies" demo. 1000 copies on pink 7" vinyl! Now that´s what I call a collector´s item. A 3 star (60%) rating is warranted.
