Gory Days is the second studio album by American rapper and record producer Necro. It was released on November 13, 2001,[2] via Psycho+Logical-Records. Recording sessions took place at Fast Forward Studios in New York. Production was handled entirely by Necro himself, who also served as an executive producer. It features guest appearances from Ill Bill, Captain Carnage, Goretex, Mr. Hyde and The Kid Joe. The album spawned two singles: "Morbid" b/w "Empty The Clip" and "Bury You With Satan" b/w "World Gone Mad". A music video was shot for "Dead Body Disposal" starring Peter Greene.[3]
Originally composed of 14 tracks, it was re-released on October 1, 2002 as a special edition limited to 5,000 copies with 2 bonus tracks and a DVD. In 2003, the instrumental version was released, containing 14 original tracks and 2 bonus tracks from special edition.
The songs "Bury You with Satan", "Dead Body Disposal" and "Poetry in the Streets" were subsequently remixed for 2003 mixtape Street Villains Vol. 1, with a new verse recorded exclusively for each of the remixes. "Bury You with Satan" was once again remixed for 2005 mixtape Street Villains Vol. 2. The song "Circle of Tyrants" served as the name of the eponymous super-group consisting of Necro, Ill Bill, Goretex and Mr. Hyde, who released a self-titled debut studio album in 2005.
The album is considered Necro's quickest selling release at the time.
