This is one of the most eagerly awaited albums and we had to make sure it was given the right treatment. Musically, you can expect brisk, pulverizing, hook-laden Swedish death metal with impeccable production values, and with a far more mature approach to songwriting where Rogga Johansson is tempering the crushing music with some of the most evocative melodies and solos you'll hear. We've revealed three songs from the album already, all of which are sufficiently different in their own ways. Check them all out on BandcampHERE.
Swedish death metal giantsPaganizerhave taken their time to come up with their most mature album till date. They've honed their sound, become more expressive, and made their song structures even more elaborate, without diluting any of the qualities that we've come to expect from them. There is a flawless combination of tuneful riffs, stomping parts, brisk blasting and some of the best hooks in the genre, underpinned by a glorious albeit tasteful sense of melody. Littered with memorable riffs and stirring melodies, the songs are at once pummelling and evocative, ensuring the desired heaviness and managing to leave a lasting impression as well. The stunning Juanjo Castellano artwork lends to the album a mystifying, otherworldly aura that goes perfectly with this album whereRogga Johanssontries to go above and beyond the call of duty and delivers a hard-hitting and poignant masterpiece in this realm of death metal.
