AVULSED setzen die Enthüllung ihres kommenden Cover-Albums „Nordic Embryogenesis“ mit einer brachialen Neuinterpretation von „No Canonization“ fort – einem Song, der von der gleichnamigen, legendären 7-Zoll-EP der schwedischen Death-Metal-Pioniere CARBONIZED aus dem Jahr 1990 stammt.
Dave Rotten himself comments the following about this song:
"The CARBONIZED cover was another absolute certainty from the very beginning. There was never any doubt that it had to be included. Ever since their debut demo in 1989, this band completely blew my mind, and their follow-up 7"EP "No Canonization" from 1990 was the ultimate culmination of that early sound. Their next demo and debut album were still very good, but by then they had already begun shifting towards a more Grind-oriented and experimental style, a direction they pushed much further on their second and third albums.
The band featured Matti Kärki, who would later become the vocalist of DISMEMBER & CARNAGE after leaving CARBONIZED shortly after this EP. It also included Lars Rosenberg, who joined ENTOMBED that same year before later playing with MONASTERY and briefly with THERION ("Theli"). Following "No Canonization", CARBONIZED welcomed Christofer Johnsson, mastermind behind THERION and drummer Piotr Wawrzeniuk, who would also become a member of THERION for several albums.
What set CARBONIZED apart from the rest of the Swedish Death Metal scene was their twisted songwriting and their frantic, highly technical approach, giving them a personality all of their own. As I mentioned, later line-up changes led the band into increasingly avant-garde and psychedelic territory, eventually moving them far away from the savage Death Metal that made their early recordings so unique".
