Entombed´s latest one is called "Inferno". Their latest "Morningstar" was for me a great album wich had a lot of aggression and creativity that the band had been missing over the recent years, when it comes to albums. Live, they are still one of the best swedish acts on stage. It starts promising with a pounding, heavy riff in "Retaliation". A very monotone song that doesn't really "hit off".

"The Fix Is In" is an aggressive declaration...well maybe you can guess what its all about...great vocals by L-G Petrov and good vibes sometimes almost like a punkfist in the face. A good one. Other good tracks are "That's When I Became A Satanist" with its superb lyrics. The aggressive "Young&Dead", "Skeleton Of Steel" is another fist in the face. And the last one, the spooky "Night For Day". All thoose are great songs.

But there is something with the sound. The production are heavy and all that, but its far to "unclean".
I used to like their "unique & fat" sound, but this time its to much noise. Some songs on this album has the same potiental as the best ones on "Morningstar" but with the sound/production on "Inferno" it is hard to really enjoy the hole album. A better production, and this album had been in the same league as "Morningstar".

But once again, creds to L-G Petrov for superb vocalworks. Sure, this one will work on a party or two but I had higher expectations if I should be honest.
