Czech death metallers BRUTALLY DECEASED kick into 2012 with a vinyl release of debut album entitled Dead Lovers’ Guide. Originally released on CD via Lavadome 17 months ago, the album represents an immense death metal outburst in the best, old school Swedish tradition.
Aside of all expectations, the material on Dead Lovers’ Guide catapulted BRUTALLY DECEASED into one of the most promising underground acts paying homage to Swedish death metal and the band has received great responses from fans and metal media from all over the world. The music captured on Dead Lovers’ Guide is harsh and vigorous with an occasional thrilling melody or a solo just the way Swedish Death Metal should be – no gimmicks, no fakes.
Prepare to embrace the old school in its purest form!
The vinyl edition – matte laminated cover, matte coated sleeve, inside black prints, 140g wax – is limited to 500 copies and can be obtained from Lavadome store at store.lavadome.org.

Critical Praise for Dead Lovers’ Guide
These fuckers just pound the living shit out of your face, body, soul and complete BEING! Songs like “Lustful Sodomy in the House of God” and the title track just pulverize the ears. ESSENTIAL! GET IT NOW!!! – MetalManiacs.com
“Dead Lovers’ Guide” is a superb tribute to the beloved works of the Swedish greats.

In terms of execution, Brutally Deceased is the best old-school death metal tribute act I have heard. What Dead Congregation is to Incantation, Brutally Deceased is to Entombed, Grave and Dismember, only more so. If you have room for one more throw-back death metal album in your collection, make it Dead Lovers’ Guide. – Metal Review
Notably early Into the Grave and You’ll Never See Grave with a hint of Nihilist; raw, with a super down tuned Sunlight buzz, an emphasis on more simple blasting riffs and grooves and some very deep, gruff vocals. The quartet obviously knows the reference material inside and out playing their trade with a simple energy and effective sense of balance between groove and cavernous blasting. RECOMMENDED! – Teeth Of The Divine
