ARMAGEDDON

Release Year: 2015
Artist Origin: SWE
Style: inflaming harmonious death/heavy metal

after the departure from Arch Enemy in 2012, Christopher Amott has revived his ambitious project from the past, which was quite a force to be reckoned with between 1997-2002, at least for those into new waves flowing from Gothenburg: music on this returning fourth longplay is not as intense as in those violent times, leaning more towards progressive sound, yet it definitely confirms the harmonious nature of the man's creativity, which is intertwined between energetic death and traditional heavy metal subgenres in a smart and capturing way, featuring pretty extraordinary vocal performance by Matt Hallquist as well; limited French O-card edition comes with an unnamed hidden bonus track
