Marduk - Obedience
This EP comes in two forms, the first being a limited digipak version (with the bondage S&M cover) and the regular version (without the bondage S&M cover, but with the same inlay pictures, I believe…). The two versions of this EP have the same tracks, two new songs (the title track and “Funeral Bitch”) and a cover of “Into the Crypts of Rays” by the almighty Celtic Frost. The two new tracks continue on in the vein of Panzer Division Marduk and, though slightly more memorable, still have that rampaging Panzer Tank in a china shop feel. I’d be seriously surprised if this EP clocked in at more than 12 minutes because these guys just don’t seem to slow down at all. The Frost cover is probably the most memorable of the three songs here and has the stamp of Marduk all over it. I think it’s because Marduk plays the song twice as fast as Frost ever did and the vocals are also twice as rabid. Marduk fans who absolutely must have everything this band will probably find the $12 it will most likely cost you to be worth it, but the rest of us might feel a little cheated because this is so fucking short. Think before buying! (My rating would have been higher if this had been cheaper.)
