Genre: Death Metal
In the bands
own words:
“It happened in
1990/1991 in the small village of Linneryd in southern Sweden. After spending
time in various metal bands, Jimmy Lundqvist and Fredde decided to start a
death metal band called ENTRAILS.
Shortly thereafter, Tobbe and Billy joined the band and they began to rehearse
like maniacs in a converted woodshed. Their main idea was to follow the scene
that Stockholm brought to light around the time with bands like Dismember,
Entombed, Grave and many more that cemented the brilliant Swedish death metal
sound from T. Skogsberg’s Sunlight studio. Unfortunately, all attempts to
record a demo at the time did not produce satisfactory results.
After this
period filled with killer shows, the boys played one last show in 2012, which
took place in the capital of death metal: Stockholm, Sweden. It was the first
show ever for ENTRAILS in Stockholm.
Back home, the last recordings has been completed and the material was sent to
Dan Swanö for mixing and mastering. Raging
Death will surely prove to be the finest ENTRAILS album to date”
In Pieces
Ambient and
full of intrigue the little piano keys meander and occasionally linger with a
sampled voice – then a mighty explosion occurs and savagely consumes you with
its contemptuous rhythms and a great start to open the album. Hateful vocal
onslaught enslaves and commands the listener to listen and by the time this is
over – it is you who will be In Pieces! Head provoking violence is always
welcomed. The guitar literally smoulders and then ignites in such a frenzy it
is hard to ignore – so don’t!
Carved to the
Bone
A bit of radio
interference then a heavy guitar emerges triumphant with some melodic chords
that swagger and immediately fires up the adrenalin infused aggression and a
guttural secretion of pure hated dominates with a nice forceful massacre.
Constant rhythmic beats carry the track in balanced form towards your doom with
waves of towering intensity. – Blistering track!
Bloodhammer
Rampant with
apocalyptic emotion swathed in brutal sophistication with thrilling violation
enveloping some crash and burn ferocity on guitars with caustic precision.
Guttural, gnarly growls just heighten the intensity of this magnificent track
that pushes the boundaries with sheer edge and aggression.
Headless Dawn
Repugnant and
scathing this track is a mighty metal avalanche of sheer powerful aggression
and will wash aside from its path, anything less than brutal. Compelling with
the intervention of strong blast beats that will kick the life out of you and
leave you wilting from sheer exhaustion. Nasty and pervading this will eat you
alive.
Cadaverous
Stench
As the devilish
blast beats come into play you can just feel yourself drooling. Captivating, astringent with wrung out
melodies and a furnace of molten hot frenzied riffs straight from the bowels of
hell which is immensely rewarding to listen to.
Descend to the
Beyond
A sumptuous pot
of maliciousness ushers forth in a droning metal swagger, with cagey rhythms
and aggressive melody. The vocals are spewed forth with utter venom and
seething. Nothing less but encapsulating in strength and vigour this is
unworldly. A highly satisfying release of pent up anger was had by all and no
doubt will be eagerly accepted and welcomed by every death metal fanatic around
the world. Superb!!
Death League
This is
certainly in a league only belonging to the raw, brutal and most savage of
tracks. Splattering with utter madness of frenzied and feverish chaos it
literally owns the listener with numbing intense riffs and a battering of
brooding beats. The earth shattering growls can be felt in the gut from the
speakers that are finding it hard to keep up with the battling frenzy of tunage
coming from them and sapping their energy.
Chained and
Dragged
Definitely a
predatory track that stalks the listener and taunts them with mind games that
will send them over the edge. That expressive growl just takes you by the
throat and demonically leaves you for dead, a highly charged track that
resonates pure evil numbing the mind and forces you to accept that they command
your soul.
Defleshed
Ripples with
stark charm and deepens their hold over you with resonating capabilities of
skill and impressiveness. The aural
torrents of pure unadulterated caustic and rhythmic textures play a big part of
keeping you musically satisfied.
Entrails
The Cemetery
Horrors
Bringing
outstanding depth and quality to the fore this track blisters like acid rain to
the skin, flowing seamlessly like liquid gold, unrelenting and savage another
superb track that brings astonishing grandeur to the mix of molten metal. The
final build-up is truly amazing!!
To sum up:
One mighty fine
album that has no end of pleasurable moments contained within it. Totally
impossible to compare it to other bands as these Swedes know just how to tempt
and deliver quality metal to the aural, grabbing attention as they go! This is
one such album that should be in your collection if you are a true death metal
head. It doesn’t have to beg to be played a million times over as it commands
with sheer force that you follow with regimented precision all that it holds
over you! A truly memorable listen with outstanding qualities and not a duff
track anywhere on this album! Buy it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
