Review
[eedit | eedit soorce]Denmark's Mercenary are follaein baunds like In Flames an Soilwork in terms o addin mair symphonic an melodic elements tae their brand o extreme metal with their latest release 11 Dreams. A greater emphasis is placed on catchy vocal heuks, whaur the clean vocal passages frae Mikkel Sandager trade aff wi the mair aggressive daith/black metal stylings frae bass player Hans 'Kral' Andersen.[1]Highly progressive, Mercenary draw influences frae baunds like Soilwork, In Flames, Nevermore, Sentenced, an pretty hintle onything Scandinavian an influential, as well as ocassionally throwin in a bit of thrash.[2] Century Media haes an absolute winner here folks. Aw reports are that the baunds appearance at last years ProgPower USA in Atlanta, Georgie wis a total success, an wi the release o 11 Dreams Mercenary seems set tae carry that momentum even further.[3]
