Mace N Chain - Among Ancient Pillars - LP

Mace 'n' Chain was formed in Sweden at the end of 2020 by David Nilsson (singer of Swedish death metal band Feral) to pay homage to the genre that originally got him into metal in the first place: true, sword-wielding, heavy, goddamned, metal!

It is raw, epic and thunderous, faithful to epic heavy metal legends, old and new, yet it has the original touch of composer and multi-instrumentalist, David Nilsson. Lyrically, "Among Ancient Pillars" is inspired by a variety of sources including myth and fantasy, literature and the works of J.R.R. Tolkien, Robert Jordan, Robert E. Howard.

Convincing debut, reminding that old school is about the mentality and not the era - Metal Invader (GR)

Tons of headbangers are going to love this record for its multi-faceted and joyfully passionate execution - Nattskog (UK)

Mace 'N' Chain gives you what you need, rough edges and all! - THE NWOTHM (UK)
