Description
INFESTDEAD’s “Satanic Serenades” unites all recordings by this Swedish death metal act led by Dan Swanö (Witherscape, ex-Edge Of Sanity, ex-Bloodbath), including the long deleted late 90’s albums expanded with EP and demo material.
Remastered by Dan Swanö and featuring liner notes, all lyrics and updated artwork by Hjules (Destruction, Annihilator).
Legendary Swedish vocalist/multi-instrumentalist/producer Dan Swanö is perhaps best known for his work with Edge Of Sanity, Nightingale, Bloodbath, and recently Witherscape. Active since the early ’90s, his career runs much deeper than this revered quartet, having produced seemingly countless bands from across the metal spectrum (Opeth, Dissection, Katatonia, Asphyx to name just a few) as well as launching or taking part in side projects including Moontower, Odyssey, Pan.Thy.Monium or Infestdead. The latter formed in 1993 and released two albums – “Hellfuck” (1997) and “Jesusatan” (1999) – plus EP/split releases.
From the debut EP “Killing Christ”, vocalist Dread (Tormented, ex-Marduk) and Dan had only one goal in mind: to create classic US inspired death metal like Deicide, Morbid Angel etc.!
The result was astonishing and in its remastered fashion sounds even more convincing and is blessed by Swanö’s incredible songwriting talent. Even if it’s just plain and violent death metal, Mr Swanö turns everything he touches into amazing music, be it prog or unholy extreme metal!
“Satanic Serenades” is an official 40+ tracks anthology release of the entire INFESTDEAD catalogue that now shall haunt the holy again!
