NIFELHEIM - DEVIL'S FORCE (CS)

After having caused a great stir with their self-titled debut, on Devil's Force from 1998 the Swedish savages don't stray one inch from their path.

NIFELHEIM's second full-length picks up the smouldering rubble from the debut and takes their unmistakable style up a notch. Aided by a slightly fuller but still gritty production, the album is a bludgeoning beast of dirty metal infused with lethal doses of satanic insanity. Filled to the brim with memorable songs Devil's Force is yet again an outright success and an indispensable underground-classic.
