Swedish Death Metallers DEMONICAL, made their seventh studio album “Mass Destroyer”, available for streaming, in anticipation of its release date, which was yesterday (May 6th) through Agonia Records.
Struck by a burst of inspiration, DEMONICAL indulged in a creative spree immediately after the release of their antecedent offering, “World Domination”, and with expertise worthy of Death Metal veterans, shaped it into “Mass Destroyer”. Developed in less than two years, the album reflects the energy that spawned its creation, and keeps to the Swede’s HM2-beaten track, promising a few twists along the way. Adorned in an old fashioned attire, “Mass Destroyer” packs a gruesome punch, embodies organic sounding and delivers a truly fiendish experience from well-seasoned old-school death-dealers.
“A huge inspirational boost hit us so why waste time and wait? Just hammer while the metal is hot,” explains the band, as to what seems to be a tried and true process, that already preceded “Hellsworn” (2009), “Death Infernal” (2011) and “Darkness Unbound” (2013).
And continues: “The outcome is here, our seventh full-length and another vicious Demonical assault of Stockholm-style Death Metal madness and beyond. Once again and as always, we wanted to crawl back in time and explore the early days of death metal but with traces and hints of various other metallic subgenres.”
Glashuset and Sellnoise Studios were used for recording with Johan Hjelm and Jonas Arnberg behind the helm, while Karl Daniel Liden mixed and mastered the album at his Tri-Lamb Studios. “We worked with the same production team as last time and the result turned out nothing but great,” the band comments. “A dynamic and breathing album we all feel very satisfied and proud off. Can’t wait to destroy the masses!”
