A grindcore-influenced death-metal duo from Yonkers, NY, Mortician is made up of vocalist/bassist Will Rahmer and guitarist/drum machine computer programmer Roger Beaujard. Although the group's sound is extreme and inaccessible to many ears, their song intros and use of slasher-film samples demonstrate a signified of humour (albeit a morbid one), boilersuit a rare good in a genre that usually thrives on a dark, lowering position. Mortician signed with the Relapse label and debuted in 1993 with Mortal Massacre, following it with 1996's The House by the Cemetery EP and 1997's full-length, evocatively titled Hacked Up for Barbecue. Further releases included 1998's Zombi Apocalypse and 1999's Chain saw Dismemberment, which power saw producer Desmond Tolhurst beginning to contribute guitar do work as well.
