Great in a high turnover deck, if you make sure not to have too many dead creatures. Oh no excess mana
edit: Haha, eat it, mana burn is gone. But seriously this combined with Consume Soul in my old deck was glorious.

Great, you can possibly summon a 6 mana creature with 1 mana by using this. Or MORE!!!

This, plus Zombie Infestation, Sutured Ghoul, and Jace, Memory Adept.
Pop Jace''s ultimate to draw 20 cards, feed all the creatures you draw into the Zombie Infestation, then Songs of the Damned to play your Sutured Ghoul.
I was able to pull this off in a game, and the end result was a 25/22 Ghoul with five 2/2 Zombies. I've seen lots of ppl give Jace crap, but he's just unassuming enough that my opponent never bothered killing him when he had the chance.

Dark Ritual, Brightstone Ritual, High Tide Culling the Weak, Vitalize, and Rite of Flame are all one drops that can be abused for large amounts of mana. All are very effective, and this is no different.

Can be better than Dark Ritual, but not always.

You'll probably get the best out of it with dredge.
But this also has some potential with creatures that have a one-mana cycling cost,
which basically makes piling them up in your graveyard free. Cycle Street Wraith and it's an instant net gain.
Since it's a common, this could be an interesting idea in Pauper. Maybe add a Pit Keeper for good measure.

Love this in my fluctuator deck. Cycle through the creatures in my deck, Lotus petal for 2-4 of these babies, drop a living death, then army of the damned (with flasback) then Emrakul and then dump the rest into an Exsanguinate.
