Splenium for Nyktophobia

Sweden's Uncanny was a little known death metal band that hatched one record in it's carreer, and what a grand and underrated album it was. This is pure Swedish death metal circa 1993 with buzzing guitars and nice growels (Jens T™rnoos' voice is perfect). The songs are killer ( "Brain Access" is the best one in my opinion), mixing fast and medium pace, but atmospheric with a tinge of melody ( the instrumental track "Timeless" is a good example). Dan Swan™'s production is really good , clear but with a dirty edge. Perhaps the one downside of this release is it's lack of originality, but who cares, this rules. Had this come out a couple of years earlier and on a better label (Unisound was an utter crap label), this release would have had a bigger impact. All in all excellent stuff that any fan of Swedish death metal should checkout and death metal fans in general too.
