In between oral and written debates about the early ?90s Swedish death metal scene, there is little chance that the Grave moniker will not be brought up to the table. Along with Entombed, Unleashed and Dismember, Grave led the first of two band waves (the second files under the flag of black metal) that were detached from thrash, in seeking for more extreme ways of expression. Their first two albums, Into The Grave and You Will Never See? are considered as records of reference for the early ?90s Swedish death metal. Since their 2002 come back, Grave have been presenting slightly altered versions of their custom style, with a fluctuating degree of acclaim, attributed primarily to the band?s degree of focus to the old school way of doing things. In the absence of credible inside info, it is assumed that a terrific chemistry exists between the new lineup because the new Grave album Endless Procession of Souls is undisputedly the band?s best work in the last ten years. In their new album, Grave move away from the old school vibe that their previous two albums attained by conviction and introduce a sense of ?freshness? in every sector. With Endless Procession of Souls Grave?s marble is opened and a breeze of fresh air has been introduced along with the putrefaction and the stench. The quality of the new Grave album implies that the right people got together in the right place and in the right time and made things much more interesting. Great Swedish death metal from one of the originators of the genre itself!
