• Track Listing

Put some pressure on it! The Unguided present their fourth record in six years. "And The Battle Royale" is not just a catch phrase - it's a challenge! Those Swedes incubate a heavyweight of Melodic Death Metal which would freak out all Metalcore forerunners in their greatest era. With a sense for overwhelming hooklines and sweet sentiments, their creamy guitars celebrate themselves. In terms of self-fulfilling songwriting both vocalists, Richard Sjunnesson and new addition Jonathan Thorpenberg, are building up a perfect symbiosis for brutal shouts and a grasp for huge melodies. Stompy Industrial is gilded in heavy-handed synthesizers as a battle trophy. A must-have for all those who value pure harshness with a good portion of sex appeal.
