HYPOCRISY

Release Year: 2023
Artist Origin: SWE
Style: intense harmonious expressive death metal

this crossroad album [2000] for the Nordic hypocrites was released at a time when Peter has started to get well deserved Pain recognition, yet it has also sparked a new flame to revive the old meaty death metal sound of his longtime extreme band, thus drawing a thick line between two directions of sound - some tracks gain momentum in real intense and harmonious way within the gloomy Swedish death metal context, once trademarked by themselves, giving compositions a bleak spatial feel that naturally complements menacing musical structure, significantly reinforcing the character of each track, while epic Fire in The Sky nicely sits as a culminating and damn memorable moment to chill things down a bit; recent German edition comes with sound remastered by Tägtgren himself
