Nightbearer • Tales of Sorcery and Death

by Testimony Records

supported by

mourner Epic, brutal and bursting with energy. Catchy and aggressive: best Swedish death metal from Germany. Mandatory for HM2 worshippers. Favorite track: Tales of Sorcery and Death.

afcturn_ Very good HM-2 osdm. Great to see a death metal band that uses themes from Tolkien and others. Seems like we've seen more bm bands utilize those writers. After listening to this dozens of times I'll check out their most recent album.

Endrot i tend to prefer newer HM-2 bands to the old ones. nightbearer are a particularly good new one.

Nattskog Pure HM-2 Death Metal carnage! Favorite track: Lycanthropic Death Squad.

about

"After their critically acclaimed EP „Stories from beyond“, released Summer 2018, NIGHTBEARER is finally releasing their first full lenght album „Tales of Sorcery and Death“ via Testimony Records.

With roots deep in the 90s Swedish Death-Metal scene, we took the next step and gave the songs more melodies and aggression while retaining all the trademarks of the EP, for example the catchy refrains, giving each song its own character as well as the lyrics, that range in the realm of fantasy and horror, heavily influenced by writers such as J.R.R. Tolkien, G.R.R. Martin or Stephen King.

Tonewise the songs feature a brutal chainsaw sound made famous around Stockholm and loved by the whole world. The entire production from recording to mastering was done in Dome's own Hellmouth Studios to retain the most possible control over everything.

Sound and lyrics are brought to life with the stunning artwork by Juanjo Castellano Rosado.
