UMUR
"The Final Chapter" is the third demo recording by Swedish death metal act Interment. The demo was independently released in 1994. It´s the successor to the June 1992 "Forward to the Unknown" demo. There has been one lineup change since the last demo as guitarist John Forsberg has left. He hasn´t been replaced and Johan Jansson therefore handles all guitars on "The Final Chapter". Jansson has stepped down as lead vocalist and only performs backing vocals on this demo, and instead the lead vocals were recorded by session musician Jens Törnroos from Uncanny, where drummer Kennet Englund also played during the same period.

Stylistically Interment now incorporate a heavy dose of brutal grooves to their old school death metal sound, and "The Final Chapter" isn´t that different from what Grave were doing on "Soulless" (1994). So this is a heavy, often mid-paced and brutal groove laden death metal demo. The quality of the material, the performances, and the sound production are generally high, but it´s up for debate if Interment bring anything unique to the contemporary Swedish death metal scene, and therein probably lies the answer to why they were never able to put out a full-length studio album during their original run. They disbanded shortly after the release of "The Final Chapter". A 3 star (60%) rating is warranted.
