‘Illusions of Grandeur’ is one of my favourite albums from 2012, so I was excited to see that the guys had released a new five track EP, and intrigued when I saw that these were covers of classic songs. We have “… For Victory” (Bolt Thrower), “Corporal Jigsore Quandary” (Carcass), “You Suffer” (Napalm Death), “Enigma” (Edge Of Sanity) and “Terminal Spirit Disease” (At The Gates). All songs were recorded at the band’s own studio, while Dan Swanö took care of the mix and mastering. The band have done more than pay homage here, they have taken these and given them their own twist so that instead of sounding as if they are different bands dating back over 20 years, instead we have something that is brutal and current. True, they don’t really have a lot of time to develop this in “You Suffer”, but it still sounds brutally mighty fine.

Of course, the only way to really enjoy this is to get the 180gm vinyl 12 inch, and if you have yet to come across this incredible Death Metal act then now is the perfect time to do so.
