Last year I was pretty impressed by the first
self-titled EP release from this new Swedish death metal act that features the
former Excruciate band leader Henrik Brynolfsson. Their debut album is also
released on the small Singapore based label Konqueror Records and continues
where the mini album left off. That means nine new songs of atmospheric death
metal with doom and heavy metal influences. Mykorrhiza still sounds a little
similar to newer Necrophobic but I think this young band is more diverse. It
is not very often that I refer to death metal as being beautiful and emotional
but those words definitely come to mind when you hear what Brynolfsson has
managed to do once again. Anders Strokirk from Blackshine handles the vocals
on this release as well and he is yet again doing a great job. The album also
features guest appearances from Brynolfsson's old bandmate from Excruciate,
Lars Levin, and the producer Tor Adolfsson who both contribute with backing
vocals. David Brink from the failed reunion line-up of Excruciate is the man
behind the album cover, making this release somewhat of a family affair. If
you're a fan of atmospheric death metal then I suggest you give Mykorrhiza a
chance.
