Do not think that this current band is going to build its fame on the magnificent Cameron's blockbuster . Not in any case because this band was formed years before, particularly in 2001 at Gothenburg, Sweden. As you can see from the place of origin the band plays Swedish melodic death metal or if you prefer N.W.O.S.D.M and this new album is the third of their career and surely the best one, since they have evolved their sound adding more melody and they totally lose the In Flames, Hypocrisy style their previous albums "Thoughts of no Tomorrow" (2006) and "Schlacht" (2007) had. Surely they didn't lose the old way of playing and the heaviness and their music contains all the elements of their homeland school but they have improved a lot in the compositions but also artistic, making them different from the past.
As for the 10 songs of the album, they are all in high level and I can not find a track that I do not like. I will particularly mention the 'Pigfucker' that distinguish from the rest, as it is an old fashion speed metal song that will rock you till death. As for the vocalist, John Alfredsson, he continues to scream. All you fans of the Swedish school who have not initiated with Avatar do not lose any more time.
