Necronomicon Ex Mortis was formed by Michael Nystrom Bala out of a desire to combine elements of classic death metal, 80s shred worship, and gory lyrics about B-horror movies. After writing far too many songs, Michael contacted guitarist Manuel Barbara, who joined the band because he had "nothing better to do." Shortly after, bassist Yusuf Rashid joined the band so he could escape the jazz world and play music people would listen to outside of an elevator. The three amigos then enlisted fellow Berklee Bros Craig Schmuhl and Joey Ferretti, on vocals and drums respectively. Apparently they didn't have much better to do, either.

Over the course of 2 years, Necronomicon Ex Mortis has worked tirelessly to release as much music as possible. This includes 4 EPs, a split with Los Angeles based metal band Bloodfeast Ritual, and a compilation of re-mastered tunes to commemorate the first steps towards turning every day of the year into Halloween.

​

As of now, Necronomicon Ex Mortis is in their underground laboratory (recording studio) engineering instruments of torture (death metal songs) to bring terror and darknss to the masses!

More songs of depravity and fury coming soon!
