CENTER FOR DISEASE CONTROL
LAB REPORT 1143-03/11
FINAL DRAFT

(This is the final draft of the lab report of CDC, concerning the specimens that the lab received a few months back. The report includes all the preliminary and secondary findings. For more details on the nature of the disease and its virulence, please refer to the Addendum of the report.)

After several experiments and usage of the technology available to CDC we have been able to establish that the host specimens that we’ve been sent contain –at least in virion form- the pathogen that has been known as Deathcoris vulgaris, before it mutated into its various and already examined configurations.

The RNA analysis of the pathogen –which, incidentally, belongs to the Metallivirus family- showed that, even at its most primal form, it already contained enough mutations so as to constitute a health hazard, not only for the human hosts, but also for the whole Metallivirus family.

The reason for this is that the pathogen’s genetic structure allows it to “latch” itself into the host’s textural material and impose certain modifications that lead to mostly uncontrollable results. For example, we have contaminated pure death metal with it and after only a few minutes, we have observed a clear tendency towards even more convoluted –one may easily use the term “chaotic”- structures and more “hardcorish” vocal configurations.

Also, when the pathogen is mixed with hardcore, one can easily observe its mutation towards more death metal forms, that appear over time to change into more and more complex systems. Again, we think that the adverb “chaotic” is appropriate for the condition the host turns into, although microscopic observation shows that this is not the case.

As we have already said, the pathogen mutated more and more with time, creating its subspecies of Deathcoris v. sp. Mathcoris (see The Dillinger Escape Plan for further reference), Deathcoris v. sp. Metalcoris and the most virulent and dangerous of all, Deathcoris v. sp. Mallcoris. The specimens that you sent us contain the pathogen in its most primal and undiluted form, though, and confirm out suspicions that this disease started in New Jersey some time in 1989 and continued until 1996.

In conclusion, we think –and the lab results show this- that the pathogen found in the Human Remains that you sent us is mainly responsible for the advent of all the above permutations in metal. You can say that this is the “patient zero” of all these –core mutations that have appeared during the last 15 years. Of course, we must point out that the specimen is highly virulent and must be approached with the utmost care.
