Having released two critically acclaimed albums on Century Media
(“Sweet Vengeance” and “Descent Into Chaos”) and the LIFEFORCE debut “A
New Disease Is Born” in 2007 this Swedish/Greek quintet takes a fresh
and renewed start with “Wearing A Martyr's Crown.” NIGHTRAGE finds
undeviating strength by looking back to a time between ’94 and ’98,
when the almighty Gothenburg-sound was at its peak. Headed by guitar
hero Marios Iliopoulos (ex-Exhumation), all songs turn out to be
aggressive and in-your-face, while combining memorable melodies and
sheer brutality perfectly. Being true to their core sound, the band
entered legendary Studio Fredman, where all the famous Gothenburg-style
acts – Dark Tranquillity, Soilwork, Arch Enemy, At the Gates, In Flames
and NIGHTRAGE of course – have recorded their classics. As always the
guitars steal the show and “Wearing A Martyr's Crown” is no exception.
Fast crushing riffing as well as catchy melodies, beautiful solos and
some clean guitars form a specific atmosphere: “Wearing A Martyr's
Crown” continues and truthfully upholds the original Swedish melodic
death metal sound. NIGHTRAGE has gone through a number of major line-up changes in the past, with the participation of Gus G (Firewind, Dream Evil) and Tomas Lindberg (At The Gates, Disfear) which the band did for their efforts in “Wearing A Martyr's Crown.” Mastermind Marios Iliopoulos recruited shouter Antony Hämäläinen (Burn Your Halo, ex- Slaves For Scores), guitarist Olof Morck Guitar (Dragonland), Jo Nunez (Suicide of Demons) on drums and bassist Anders Hammer (ex-Disdain) to find a solid line-up and to permute his death metallic vision.
