Nuclear Death
The Planet Cachexial (2021 Reissue)
CD

The Queen Mother of death metal sheds her skin and side-steps into a parallel dimension to howl at the Full Moon! The Planet Cachexial is an avant-garde entity all of its own, ushering in new sounds for NUCLEAR DEATH. The lost bridge between the All Creatures... and Harmony... albums, it's low-fi sci-fi conceptualism is perhaps best described as extreme cosmic drama. Much more a "soundtrack" than an album, The Planet Cachexial is the companion tome to a dark sci-fi novella written and illustrated by Ms. Bravo titled Slumberblood, centering on the birth and rebirth of universes. On Planet Bravo uses vocals purely as an instrument. Literally sounding like a wild, inhuman entity, emitting the sounds of the various creatures that make up the world of Slumberblood.
However, taken only as a musical experience, The Planet Cachexial is a haunting, discordant work filled with unexpected moments of phantasmagoric horror. It truly welcomes you to the morbid mind of Ms. Bravo through both Sound and picture. Planet is Lori's favorite NUCLEAR DEATH record, in her own words; "No one can touch The Planet Cachexial! It's truly is ND's finest moment." A ground-breaking slab of Avant-garde metal art decades ahead of its time.
