Fusing elements of death metal, thrash, hardcore and nu-metal, Feared have released one album for almost every year of their decade-long existence. The Swedish extremists’ eighth full-length boasts a muscular hardcore edge on bellicose tracks like “King of the Dead”, “Hate Mantra” and “Engines of Death”, but the barrage of burly riffs, lightning-strike solos and tough-guy vocals is tastefully offset by the melancholy guitars and spoken-word intro of “My Next”, the sombre piano interlude “In I Dimman” and beautiful instrumental closer “Blodspår”.
