- A BRUTAL AND GRUESOME SLASH OF OLD-SCHOOL SWEDISH DEATH METAL DARKNESS [!] - Feat. ex-CENTINEX- and current INTERMENT- and GRAVE-members! 11/12 points in German HEAVY + 8/10 in German ROCK HARD[!]
DEMONICAL was spawned in March 2006 - by former CENTINEX members Johan Jansson (guitars & vocals), Martin Schulman (bass) and Ronnie Bergerstеhl (drums) - with a mission to return to the roots of death metal and deliver a sheer dose of darkness and brutality.
The first audio assault - a four track promo attack entitled "Bloodspell Divine" - was recorded at Necromorbus Studios (Watain, Ondskapt) during July the same year.
The disc packed with true Swedish hellfire received great reviews and reactions within the scene and led to several offers from interested labels.
In November 2006 Demonical added vocalist Ludde Engellau (REMASCULATE) to the line-up - 'cause Johan wanted to fully concentrate on the six-string axe - and signed a worldwide multialbum deal with German Cyclone Empire.
The bands first full-lenght album - entitled "Servants Of The Unlight" - was recorded at both Black Lounge (e.g. SONIC SYNDICATE, INSISION) and Necromorbus Studios (e.g. WATAIN, MЦRK GRYNING, IN BATTLE, ZARATHUSTRA) during January and February 2007 for a release in April.
The release will be supported by live-rituals during the spring and summer (e.g. festivals like Walpurgis-Metal or a tour with NUNSLAUGHTER in June/July).
