Gorelust - Reign of Lunacy (1995)

 Gorelust were regarded as one of the best live bands of their time, the young Quebec band disbanded within the year of the release of Reign Of Lunacy in 1995. The release itself was limited to 1000 units when released by New World Symphony Records.

The album has been dedicated to Steeve Hurdle of Gorguts who sadly passed away earlier 1992 and who alongside band mate Luc Lemay at the time, contributed backing vocals to Reign Of Lunacy. The album is a raw and brutal exercise for the senses, a merciless assault of technical and uncompromising death metal brought by the combined might of vocalist Jean Beaulieu, guitarist Martin Fournier, bassist Pascal Chevrier, and Francis Marmen on drums.

 The band had a deal with Cryptic Soul Production to release their debut in Europe. However, the label did some things the band didn't approve of, like the recoloured artwork and switch-up in song order. Therefore, this release is partly unofficial.
