Apocryphal‘s return 25 years after their debut album “Black Dreams Of Silence” is done in a deafening way. When we first heard the new material, from the first notes of the opening song “Smells Like The End Of The World“, it was like a bomb dropped in our offices.
Aggressive, straight in your face melodic death metal at its best. Frenetic rhythm with catchy choruses, raging drums and relentless riffing, mark Apocryphal‘s new album. Special mention goes to the amazing work done on the guitars and the solid rhythm section. Bjorn “Speed” Strid doesn’t need much to say. The way he spits the lyrics transforms the whole effort, sending it to the heavens. Add to all above the amazing production that brings out every aspect of this masterpiece.
We are very proud to release “Facing The End” and we hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
