Denata is a new Swedish
extreme metal act that was formed in 1998. Now they are back to strike again
with their second album entitled "Deathtrain" which is their first release
on their new label Arctic Music Group, a label run by Phil Fasciana of
Malevolent Creation. Phil has always had a talent for finding quality acts
from all over the world and Denata is no exception. Mixing the intensity and
speed of old-style thrash metal á la Kreator and the brutality of modern death
metal they have found a winning concept, at least the way I see it. The
members of the band are more than capable in handling their respective
instruments but the brick in this massive sound wall that is the most
impressive one is the vocalist who is definitely one of the best in the
extreme music scene today. The production has also been handled very well but
the instruments themselves may have been placed a little too deep in the mix.
Even though the vocalist does a wonderful job with the mic he is not the only
member of the band. Denata still has some to learn when it comes to innovative
song writing but if you are looking for an intense old-school extreme metal
experience full of energy and with a powerful modern sound this young Swedish
band might very well be worth checking out. Stand-out tracks: "Deathtrain",
"1349", "Pentagram".
