Arise "Kings of the cloned generation"

Having not heard of the band’s sound before, I thought first, due to their monicker, that they were heavily influenced by old Sepultura. Couldn’t be more wrong… for they are simply another magnificent melodic Death/Thrash outfit.

After the well acclaimed “ The godly work of art “ issued in 2001, several compilations, entering a tribute to Led Zeppelin “ Dead Zeppelin” and no less than 5 demos, this swedish band, formed in 94 and back then covering proeminent bands like Sepultura, Pantera and Machine Head, succeeded in gathering a poisonous and corrosive blood filled perversion to spread around the world.
As well as their debut album, they recorded this piece of art at the Studiomega being produced and mixed by Christian “Bullen” Silver and having once more the golden touch of Mr. Niklas Sundin ( for those still dormant regarding the underground, a known guitarist of Dark Tranquility fame )/ Cabin Fever Media in the artwork and design.
What we have here are 10 pieces of blooded mutilations across the underground’s flesh possessed by rage and fury against the political and social doctrines so much common nowadays due to an over confident yet doubtful doctrine spread through governments, religions and science. Some of the lyrics are surrealistic, other more fed upon reality as we know it, but each is given a real shock treatment by the vocalist’s lungs disposing a harsher outburst to the stormy yet melodic struggle that dwell around him.
It isn’t hard to describe the emotions echoed by the listener when facing the music for he will surely be headbanging quite furiously after some minutes listening to the songs. Although their sound may not be a very original one it contains the right ingredients to gain a more fierce identity. Can’t wait for the next cd!!!
