Description
THE BRUTAL 2018 STUDIO ALBUM FROM THE REINVIGORATED UK DEATH METAL LEGENDS CANCER
'A triumph for Death Metal and shows that sometimes the Old School is the best School' - (9/10) Rock n' Load
Cancer marks 30 years of existence with its sixth full-length studio album that reunites all three original core members - John Walker (guitar/vocals), Ian Buchanan (bass) and Carl Stokes (drums) - for the first time since 1995.
With interest in the band increasing in recent years - including numerous high-profile festival appearances - 'Shadow Gripped' sees Cancer return to its classic inspirational sound.
The album features ten songs of brutal old school Death Metal and was recorded at Foel studios with Simon Efemey (Paradise Lost, Napalm Death, Amorphis) handling production and mixing duties alongside the band.
Anders Nyström of Swedish death-lords Bloodbath guests.
This edition of 'Shadow Gripped' is presented in jewel case packaging complete with a 12-page booklet and an OBI card.
'Sometimes, evoking giants of the 90's death scene like Malevolent Creation, Obituary, Massacre or even Benediction, but never losing the characteristic and singularity of what made them a legendary band... this is a slab of pure, evil, eviscerating raw death metal' Metal Wani
'For any fan of no frills, cut-throat death metal this is one certainly not to be missed!' - (9/10) Distorted Sound
'All of the songs are electrifying right from the start... Only the biggest optimists would have expected such a cool album from the trio. Welcome back, boys!' (13/15) - Legacy
'Riffing mid-tempo Death Metal with American roots but also a portion of British flair. In this form Cancer can remain for quite a while' Rock Hard
