Fourth full-length album from
the Swedish band Maze Of Torment and also the fourth label try. This time they
have left Necropolis Records who apparently didn't give them the money they
were promised and instead signed a new deal with the native label Hellspawn
Records, run by David Parland (Dark Funeral, Necrophobic). They have also
changed to a new studio. Last time they recorded at Sunlight but now they have
chosen Abyss for the recordings which results in a sharper and less dirty
sound than they had on their previous album "Death Strikes". Other than that
they have not changed that much which I am glad to hear. Yet again we are
offered an aggressive and furious mix of extreme metal with influences from
old-school thrash, brutal death metal and melodic black metal. Maze Of Torment
remind me a lot of the kind of albums that No Fashion Records released in the
90's but this is more technical and elaborate. Catchy guitar riffs, raw
vocals and a few guitar solos have been thrown into the mix. If you like
old-school extreme metal with a perfect production and a touch of evil then
Maze Of Torment is for sure one of the better bands at the moment. The Misfits
cover "All Hell Breaks Loose" was also a great inclusion. Maze Of Torment is
one of the most underrated bands in
Sweden.
