INFESTDEAD - Satanic Serenades (12" Gatefold DOUBLE LP on Black Vinyl)
Sweden | Death
Detailed Description
Legendary Swedish vocalist/multi-instrumentalist/producer Dan Swano is perhaps best known for his work with Edge Of Sanity, Nightingale, Bloodbath, and recently Witherscape. Active since the early '90s, his career runs much deeper than this revered quartet, having produced seemingly countless bands from across the metal spectrum (Opeth, Dissection, Katatonia, Asphyx to name just a few) as well as launching or taking part in side projects including Moontower, Odyssey, Pan.Thy.Monium or INFESTDEAD. The latter formed in 1993 and released two albums - "Hellfuck" (1997) and "JesuSatan" (1999) - plus EP/split releases. From the debut EP "Killing Christ", vocalist Dread (ex Edge Of Sanity, ex Marduk) and Dan had only one goal in mind: to create classic US inspired death metal like Deicide, Morbid Angel etc.! The result was astonishing and sounds even more crushing with this brand-new remastering by Swan- himself. It also looks better since for "Satanic Serenades", Swan- picked Gyula Havancsak (Annihilator,Destruction, Jungle Rot) who created fitting blasphemous art for this release. Furthermore, the songs are blessed by Swan-'s incredible songwriting talent, so even if it's just plain and violent death metal, Mr Swan- turns everything he touches into amazing music, be it prog or unholy extreme metal! The high class 180 gram double vinyl comes in a gatefold sleeve, features vinyl mastering by Dan Swan-, and two lyric sheets.
