UMUR
"Condemned to the Shadows" is an EP release by US, Florida based death metal act Massacre. The EP was released through Nuclear Blast Records in July 2012 and was meant as a teaser for the 2014 comeback album "Back from Beyond". It was the first new material from Massacre since their second full-length studio album "Promise" from 1996.

The EP features 2 tracks and a total playing time of 8:13 minutes. Both tracks would be included on "Back from Beyond (2014)", making "Condemned to the Shadows" a redundant release if you already own the album. Of course that wasn´t the case in 2012, when the album release was still a few years into the future, and the EP should therefore be judged on its own merits...

...and those merits are that this is a good quality old school death metal release and that it sounds like Massacre (the riff style and guitar tone of Rick Rozz instantly give that away), even without the distinct sounding vocals of original vocalist Kam Lee. The vocals here are performed by Edwin Webb (Eulogy, Diabolic...etc.), and he does a good job performing some convinving intelligible growling (and occasionally higher pitched screaming) vocals.

"Condemned to the Shadows" is well produced too, and the EP is therefore a quality old school death metal release in most departments. A 3.5 star (70%) rating is deserved.
