The
Forsaken is a new crushing death metal act from Sweden and definitely one to
count with in the future. The band was first formed in 1997 as Septic Breed
and now consists of Nicke Grabowski, Stefan Holm, Patrik Persson, Anders
Sjöholm (Ominous, Massgrav) and MIchael Håkansson (Evergrey, Embraced). Being
the debut album "Manifest Of Hate" is an amazing effort from the band and it
is not surprising that they have been signed to Century Media, one of the
leading metal labels in the world. If you miss the beautiful melodies from At
The Gates (and who doesn´t?) prepare to find them again with The Forsaken
together with a touch of Morbid Angel. The twin guitar work is often excellent
and the growling vocals are well in line with the music. The album was
recorded in September 2000 in the well-known Abyss Studios with Tommy Tägtgren
who proclaimed them to be the best band he had ever recorded. Aggression,
speed and devastating power are trademarks of The Forsaken but without
neglecting melody and technical precision. 2001 promises to be a great metal
year and this is only the beginning. A new giant is about to rise in the death
metal world and The Forsaken will not be forgotten easily. Standout tracks
would be "Deamon Breed", "Soulshade" and "Truth Of
God".
