Heads for the Dead prove once again that they are the best 'old-school' death metal band going. Their lyrics are drenched in horror and gore. Their music channels terror. They are the real deal.
Favorite track: The Seance.

International horror based Death Metal. This is fantasticly playful! I think there are a lot of bands who take themselves far too seriously these days... You have to remember to have fun as well! Boy do these guys know how to do just that! Just the titles crack me up - where do I find the lyrics? Highly recommended!!! Thanks to Kunal for making it so affordable too, I would never have gone for it otherwise... :)

Death metal supergroup Heads For The Dead dropped a stunner of an album in 'Serpent's Curse' which sent shockwaves through the underground. The band's masterful blending of classic death metal with horror-inspired elements set them apart from the standard revivalist bands. The combination of Jonny Pettersson (Wombbath, Gods Forsaken, Henry Kane) behind the music and Ralf Hauber (Revel In Flesh) on vocals proved to be extremely effective and both of them put in their experience of decades to create something marvellous. 'Into the Red' sees them take things to a different level and also recruiting the services of the legendary drummer Ed Warbie, known for his work in bands like Gorefest and Hail of Bullets, renders their sound flawless. They've honed it to make it more cohesive, the horror influence now being an intrinsic part of the music, and there's undeniable growth in the songwriting that makes them step out of the shadow of the old school death metal peers to carve an identity of their own. The artwork has once again been created by Branca Studio retaining the classic horror aesthetic and as expected there are guest appearances such as from members of Sentient Horror and Gods Forsaken. 'Into the Red' raises the bar for old school death metal circa 2020 and it's ironic how their horror theme fits eerily well into the real life horrors this era is witnessing. It's time to embrace it all the same.

UK death metal band Live Burial have expanded upon their sound to make it more dynamic, impactful and also intricate, while retaining their essence. It's easily among the best ones in the style. Heads For The Dead
Swedish death metal legends have returned with a masterful album that showcases their emotive depth more than ever before but makes sure to bludgeon their listeners into submission at the same time. Heads For The Dead
De Profundis have made a staggering progress in the sound which is more extreme than ever before but also retains the melodic sensibilities. It's this excellent balance that makes their music work. Heads For The Dead
