Horror Pain Gore Death Productions present Destiny, the debut album from Memphis, Tennessee’s ultraviolent sludge metal sadists Mudshow.
Destiny is a concept record telling the story of Matt Tremont’s explosive anHorrord blood-soaked feuds with Atsushi Onita and Rickey Shane Page and is heavily indebted to A Season In Hell by 19th-century French Symbolist poet Arthur Rimbaud. “Destiny” explores the themes of martyrdom, exile, and revenge, of killing your idols and healing old wounds even if it means opening new ones. For fans of Neurosis, Eyehategod, Primitive Man, Three 6 Mafia, kaiju films, and classic hardcore/deathmatch wrestling
“Destiny is the result of a lot of repressed frustration,” the band say about the album. “It was not a pleasant record to write. It’s a concept album about a deathmatch wrestler, but a lot of real life pain went into every moment of this record. However, recording and performing it has been a cathartic experience, and we couldn’t be more grateful to HPGD for giving us a chance to have it heard. They’ve been nothing but supportive of us and have been the perfect home to our brand of violence.”
