2017 is here and we've already got a solid supergroup on our hands! Enter The Lurking Fear, which features frontman Tomas Lindberg (At The Gates, ex-Lock Up), guitarists Jonas Stålhammar (God Macabre, Crippled Black Phoenix) and Fredrik Wallenberg (Skitsystem), bassist Andreas Axelson (ex-Edge Of Sanity, ex-Marduk), and drummer Adrian Erlandsson (At The Gates, The Haunted).
No word on when the band will be announcing its debut album or premiering new music, but it sounds like it'll be pretty good! Especially considering all the dudes in the band are either in/have been in classic Swedish death metal bands, or play in killer d-beat Swedish punk groups.
The Lurking Fear is bringing sheer, natural weirdness and horror back to the scene, as we want our death metal ugly, twisted and possessed.
Riffs should stir up real feelings of repulsion, and disgust deep down in your soul, and vocals should sounds like hounds of hell howling at the moon.
So this should be great. Here's hoping we know more soon!
