Denmark is beginning to catch up on the other Scandinavian
countries as it comes to producing interesting metal bands. Mercenary isn't
exactly a new band since it was formed back in 1991 but it isn't until now
that I have noticed them which is a shame because they are a very good band.
Prior to this album they have released one mini-cd and one full-length album
so they aren't really an unexperienced band. The music of Mercenary is hard
to describe but one thing for sure is that this is a very atmospheric album
while still being brutal and heavy which may sound a little strange. This
means that there is a wide variety of musical influences to be found in their
music which sounds like a mix between The Haunted and Gardenian. I especially
enjoy the use of different vocal styles which adds an extra touch to the
music. It is not easy to impress me these days but Mercenary have managed to
do so and if you're in for an energy rush of Scandinavian death/thrash metal
at its best (well, at least almost at its best) I would definitely recommend
you to check out this Danish band. Stand-out tracks: "Darkspeed",
"Bulletblues" and a few others...
