Sword Songs LP

Artist: GRAND MAGUS
Label: Nuclear Blast

Release Year: 2016
Artist Origin: SWE
Style: thunderous dynamic epic heavy metal

those following the steps of The Great Magician, represented by longplay albums of the band, notice that Swedish three-piece does not like that much to toss around one stylistic paradigm and always aim to renew; eighth studio recording does not drift that far from epic and majestic heavy metal, yet admittedly adds up in heavy-weighted aggression, sweeping dynamics and steely drama, uncharacteristic to previous works - seems that with years an ultimate aim to alchemically purify the Scandinavian metal gets more and more actual; limited gatefold sleeve black vinyl edition comes with two additional tracks on side B, including Deep Purple Stormbringer cover
