Unholy Death Metal absolute!!, September 7, 2001
This review is from: Moribund Transgoria (Audio CD)
The Swedish Terror Train returns once again to lay waste to all trend-followers with their unique brand of diabolic madness. While retaining their trademark dynamic skills as axe-masters, Swordmaster pushes the envelope, adding heightened melody and sinister atmosphere induced by bone-chilling solos, and ritualistic rhythmic harmonies. But make no mistake, Swordmaster will lay waste to your soul by encapsulating your auditory sensations with technically gruesome harmonies that not only infect your mind like a disease, but crawl into your bloodstream, paralyzing you until the inevitable end. `Tis a frightening thought, but such is the way of Swordmaster! And Andy LaRoque's (KING DIAMOND) participation in the producer's chair only makes matters worse for you, for the man has perfected the art of making a guitar's sound clasp onto your brain and slowly eat through it, until you are a mindless drone, whose only reason for existence is to perpetuate the cycle and await absolution! Music should not be this suffocating, but such is the calling of Swordmaster! This is unholy Death Metal absolute!!
