Paganizer are one of the finest exponents of
Swe-death and are set to return with a four track blast of nastiness, entitled “On
The Outskirts of Hades” on August 1st 2016. Opener “Angry All
The Time” doesn't tear out of the gate, but rest assured that after the
doomy intro the band pick up the pace and rip things up.
Although Dismember
are gone, it is immensely gratifying to hear bands like Paganizer and Entrails
carrying the torch. Certainly, this four track EP is an excellent taster for
what the band is all about and is certainly for fans of the REAL Swedish death
metal sound. It is doomy and feral with the right amount of grit in the sound
to make the fast and slow sections work effectively.
Track such as “The Netherworld Carnivale” is
not a million miles away from Asphyx and
is a great example of what Paganizer
can do. The title track of the EP closes things in some style- a malevolent
riff kicking things off and then the verses locking in effectively.
For anyone wanting some Swedish death metal in the
traditional style, Paganizer is a
band to check out. Their name may not have the gravitas of Entombed or Dismember,
but they are operating in the same theatre- and doing so viciously.
Today at The
Sludgelord, it gives us great pleasure to share a brand new
track. “Adjacent to Purgatory”, which
brings an intensity that has not been
matched by some of the bigger names in the genre, check it out and beware it might just tear your
soul apart.
“On The Outskirts of Hades” is available here and here (digital). It be officially released August 1st via Transcending Obscurity Records
