Hypocrisy
has changed a lot since their early days but still they´re at Nuclear Blast,
one of the top metal labels in the world. The music is still melodic death
metal but the vocals are not as raw as they used to be. If you have heard the
latest release from the band you know pretty much what this album sounds like
as it is very similar. The only difference is that this one is a little more
aggressive. As always you can mostly thank Peter Tägtgren for the great music
on this album. He wrote most of the music, produced and mixed the album as
well as played both guitar and keyboards and did the vocals. It´s no doubt he
is one of the most talented people in Swedish metal and Hypocrisy is
definitely one of the best death metal bands in the world right now. The sound
is a little similar to that of Dark Tranquillity but Hyporisy is heavier, more
massive and not quite as melodic. The album is very well-produced, there are
some great guitar riffing, nice drumming and all of it nicely accompanied by
keyboard orchestration on a couple of tracks to create a very interesting
composition. The album was produced and mixed by Peter Tägtgren, recorded at
his own Abyss Studio Dec 98-Jan 99 and engineered by the band and Peter's
brother Tommy Tägtgren. The cover art was done by Thomas Ewerhard, photos and
layout by Axel Jusseit. The album was mastered at Cuttingroom by Peter In De
Betou.
