With a name like that, you can imagine they play horrific, old-school, grimy death metal... And that's exactly the case! Old-school feel for an impeccable result, endowed with a powerful but absolutely not plastic production, this \"Duck Face Killings\" is a pleasantly putrid smoke!For fans of CANNIBAL CORPSE, SEVERE TORTURE, PROSTITUTE DISFIGUREMENT, INTERNAL BLEEDING.The infamous Italian director Lucio Fulci created many of the most memorable and vivid visions of horror and exploitation cinema of the supernatural, the sadistic, and the salacious. Zombi 2, The Beyond, City of the Living Dead, The House by the Cemetery, and many others left an indelible impression on the minds of many impressionable youths. The Italian Death Metal band Fulci was so possessed by the work of their countryman that they named the band after him, each album being a concept and tribute based on one of his films.For the band's 4th bloodthirsty album, and the first for 20 Buck Spin after growing popularity in the underground Death Metal scene over recent years, Fulci presents 'Duck Face Killings', a tribute to one of Lucio's most depraved and reviled films, \"The New York Ripper\". In his book « Beyond Terror: The Films of Lucio Fulci », author (and former Coil member) Stephen Thrower says: « The New York Ripper is a nihilistic vision of Hell on Earth. No one counts. No one cares [...] Fulci's film offers a powerful vision of a world where love has turned to poison and death, as suggested by the soundtrack over the credits, with its inflection of 'just another day in the big bad apple' and its faceless sleaze-funk: but in a climate of absolute zero.\" Perhaps only the director's most ardent defenders can admit to a guilty pleasure in the film.Musically, Fulci unleashes a barrage of captivating and horrible riffs, bloody blows, murderous slams, low guttural vocal patterns, and eerie intros and interludes. The band's songwriting is consciously obsessed with creating the most violent and sharpened music possible to convey the extreme savagery of the film, imagining a soundtrack for the most macabre and cynical slasher film ever made. There is plenty of succulent meat on these bones, dripping with hooks and all the colors of Lucio Fulci's eccentric cinema of cruelty, while the psychotic killer hunts his victims with relentless perversity and sick satisfaction, inexplicably quacking with a duck voice throughout...One man's trash is another man's treasure, and such is the case with a film as sordid and odious as « The New York Ripper ». Described by Carol Tpolski of the British Board of Film Classification as « quite simply the most damaging film I have ever seen in my entire life », the film was banned in the UK upon its release in 1982 for the next 20 years. With « Duck Face Killings », Fulci's brutal delivery and graphic depiction of their mentor's violent world shines like a beacon of blood under the streetlights of New York, shocking and savage. A testament to the controversial master in all his decadent guts and degenerate glory.","brand":"Fulci","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57516547998040,"sku":null,"price":23904928.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/vinyles.com\/en-us\/products\/fulci_duck-face-killings_2025_disco-virgin-music-group","provider":"Vinyles.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
