"The UK legends of death metal release gruesome new album Shadow Gripped. Lyric video by Jonathan Irwin. ‘Shadow Gripped’ features ten songs of brutal old school death metal, and was recorded at Foel studios, with Simon Efemey (Paradise Lost, Napalm Death, Amorphis) handling production and mixing duties alongside the band. Shadow Gripped is a crushing slab of death metal in the classic Cancer style. The album also features a special guest appearance from Anders Nyström of Swedish deathlords, Bloodbath/ Katatonia, who comments: “Believe it or not, but Katatonia used to play a Cancer cover in our early live sets, yup that’s right ’Burning Casket’! We then saw ourselves go on and form a little death metal band based on the opening track of ’To The Gory End’, and hey we all know that one, don’t we? Last year we ended up recording this song and put it out on a 7” ep and I thought it probably won’t get any better than this, but it did, as I was given the honour to put down a guest solo on their new ball-cutting album! CFC is back and it has me even more stoked than Carl is Stokes!”"

отличный альбом, перерыв в 13 лет закончился удачно. правильный эталонный олдскульный дэт. местами похоже на болтов, что имхо плюс. залью в смартфон.
