THE REVIEW

Perhaps not many know them, but this Swedish combo is probably one of the best melodic death groups around.

This album sees Thomas Lindberg, the legendary Tompa from the legendary At The Gates, on vocals, replacing the historic singer Johan Lindstrand, who decided to take a year off.

Technically they are fantastic, nothing to say, and the songs are all great.
It starts with a dark and slow intro "House of Hades" and then explodes with the title track "Crowned in Terror"... the whole CD settles at high tempos almost as if it were black but more technical... it's useless to mention particular songs, they are all well crafted, anyway I particularly like "World Below," "The Speed of Darkness," "Drugged Unholy," and "Out for Blood."

A real punch in the ass, and if you want to hear a good album of pure death metal, go buy it!!!
