   release notes:

   Forgotten early 90's Death Metal classic back in the spotlight!

   Viogression's debut is one of the great early 90's Death Metal albums
   but it never got any bigger attention. This was because the band signed
   to one of the most notorious rip-off labels at the time, and this wasn't
   the only bad thing that happened. Viogression's American label folded
   during the first week of the band's tour with Death, a tour was meant to
   promote "Expound & Exhort", and to add insult to injury, their label
   could not pay for the Euro leg of said tour and so the band had to
   withdraw. This resulted in very little attention to their debut which
   just happens to be a Death Metal masterpiece.

   "Expound and Exhort" is an album full of great Death Metal that brings
   Obituary and earlier Death to mind. Vocalist Brian DeNeffe is in league
   with John Tardy, but occasionally he uses a vicious screamy style of
   singing. Mostly the music varies between mid-tempo and slow 'n doomy but
   there are also some sudden blastbeats. This little factor sets
   Viogression apart from for example Obituary because they never used
   blastbeats. The production is good and surprisingly heavy, which is a
   great thing since some of the more underground Death Metal albums have
   quite a weak production (and it is fully remastered and restored for
   this re-issue). Another thing that sets Viogression apart is the use of
   weird effects and ambient parts in the songs. Viogression definitely
   gets the job done in the quality department, exuding a level of
   enthusiasm and intensity that is difficult to miss.

   "Expound and Exhort"is one of those albums that doesn't really get old,
   it keeps moving and changing things up, and does not fall shy of
   matching what was coming out of the bigger names in the early 90's. To
   sum it all up, "Expound and Exhort" is essential for all fans of early
   90's Death Metal. Despite being heavily Obituary influenced it's by no
   means a clone. They don't make 'em like this anymore.
