Crowdburn new single released
CROWDBURN release the 'ALLIGATOR'
Swedish metallers, CROWDBURN, have released their new bizarre video for ALLIGATOR. The video sees a gang of alligators descend on the White House and take over the world in the process. Sounds silly right?!
Watch the video on Youtube by clicking below:
'ALLIGATOR' is taken from the band's new album 'IGNITION' which was released on 11/10/13 on Discouraged Records.
Video by Erik Engbo & Björn Algers, Standard Film Team, 2013
Kicking and screaming their way out of Umeå in northern Sweden, CROWDBURN are back with their new record IGNITION. The five piece are renowned for their genre crossing hybrid of thrash, death metal and punk rock. IGNITION is a record that will have you circle-pitting, headbanging and singing along to the soaring melodies all at the same time.
Formed in late 2010, with the sole reason to write, record, play and tour heavy music, CROWDBURN hit the touring circuit hard in Scandanavia. This has included playing huge Nordic festivals like House of Metal and Rock Out Wild.
IGNITION is a record that stands proud and CROWDBURN are not afraid to wear their hearts on their sleeves. Taking no shame in drawing influences from 90's thrash, modern metal and in particular from their heroes, such as System Of A Down, Devin Townsend and Pantera.
The message from CROWDBURN is simple. These guys have made this band their number one priortiy and simply want to have a great time. The bands first music video, 'Confronted', clearly shows that these guys are down to earth and have a great sense of humour. CROWDBURN are well known for their unique music videos. Both songs 'Confronted' and the cover 'Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites' are great Youtube successes. Together they have half a million views and Scary Monsters topped the Swedish charts during the week it was released.
Band Members:
Aron Andersson - Vocals
Christoffer Lindmark - Guitar(Lead Guitarist)
Patrik Wall - Guitars
Jonathan Holmgren - Bass
Andreas Grehn - Drums

ACACIA - Tills döden skiljer oss åt
This is to me a totally new experience or should I say journey?
The Swedish outfit Acacia delivers a somewhat different album from what we usually get here.
At first listen I thought that this was some boring ambient stuff who repeated itself over and over each track.
I was terribly wrong and I have to bow down for that mistake.
'Tills döden skiljer oss åt' is to me a beautiful peace of art and a journey through a dreamy landscape revealing itself more and more throughout the album.
It's impossible how to describe how the manage to blend in all the different elements in here without failing.
I mean there are male vocals here mostly clean ,but also growly and even screamy.
All this combined with some nicely done female vocals a lot of their lyrics is done in their native language which is Swedish.
The music has mostly a warm feel to it as the album starts out with acoustic guitars and piano which slowly builds up towards very atmoshpheric (death) metal and then slows down again .
Their use of synths is just excellent and makes their sound more complete I would say.
It's a very majestic album overall and you should listen to the whole album as one.
I could go on forever to describe it,but to keep it short I can say that you are in for a lot of surprises on this album.
If you like bands like My Dying Bride and similar acts this might be something for you.
Recomended

Irem - Obscuritas Aeterna (Ger)
Release date: May 11th, 2013. Label : Self-released
This german black metal outfit's debut has been out for a while now.
This is pretty straight forward black metal pretty brutal ,but still I find it melodic at times thanx to the guitars I guess.
I have to admit that this is not bad at all ,but at times it ends up somewhat boring as it's far from original with it's typical black metal sound and screams.
If you look away from that it's a pretty descent album and it's worth a listen if you're a die hard black metal fan.
As for me it's pretty good when I only listen to one or two songs it's good ,if I listen to the whole album it becomes 'too much' ,but then again it's a matter of taste..
I wish they could focus on making 'their own' tracks in the future and not just play fast and technical all the way, as this band truly has talent and are good at handling their instruments,the vocals is good, but I want to hear tracks I don't feel I've heard somewhere else before.
