Please tell us about the history of your band and its members.
The band was formed by ex-members of other bands from the area in early 2017. Our first demo was not in audio format, but in video clip format for the track entitled "Blood". Thanks to this video we got a response from BASE REC PROD for the edition of our debut album. This album was released at the beginning of last September and is titled "Where The Screams becomes silence".
How would you describe your style? Which bands influenced your music?
We intend to make Death Metal in its most classic, dark and rotten way ... The average age of the members of MURDERWORKER exceeds 40 years old, so you can imagine what kind of bands influence us ... Mainly the first times of Obituary , Autopsy, Entombed, Carcass, Gorefest, Bolthrower, Demigod ... Mainly classical Death Metal bands.
Why should a metalhead buy your demos/albums?
I do not know if someone should buy our material or not. But if someone feels sympathy for the heavy and catchy Death Metal of simple compositional structures, more aimed at presenting a good guitar riff or melody, than incessant changes of tempo and dizzying speeds, we may be a good choice!
What have you released so far and how were your releases received by the public/media?
So far our only edition before the album was our video clip, which has obtained a good response to be an relatively young underground band. Our album takes a few weeks out, but so far all the media that have received and reviewed have given us a really positive vision, we are very happy so far! The public that has listen to it also seems to have an excellent opinion about our work.
Do you play live as well? How's your live activity so far?
The members of the band have enough experience on the stage with previous bands. But with MURDERWORKER at the moment we have only played a couple of times and we immediately focused on the recording of the album. Currently we have several dates closed and soon we will get some more!
What should labels/zines/promoters know about your band? Why should they be interested in it?
Certainly in recent years the scene Death Metal globally is full of very fast and technical bands, some even original! But their albums are difficult to digest and most of the time the compositions do not distinguish between them causing the listener saturation and boredom. In MURDERWORKER we pretend the opposite, basing our style on how the great Death Metal bands did it (saving distances clear hahahaha). We intend to make memorable songs and not overwhelm the listener, giving importance to the guitar riff and a meaningful structure.
What plans do you have for the near future as a band?
Right now to promote the album as much as possible through the media and on stage, later we will start making our next recording
