More Info:
Formed during the vibrant 90s, Fatal Embrace has been a pioneering force in the Swedish underground death metal scene. The band made their debut with "Shadow Souls Garden," which garnered critical acclaim. Their second album, "Hail Down Deep," is now finally seeing the light of day 26 years after it's predecessor. Last year's "Manifestium Infernalis" marked the band's third album and continued their evolution in the genre. The new release, "Hail Down Deep," has been remixed and remastered by the band, revisiting the original 1998 recordings that were previously shelved and left unreleased. The vocals have been re-recorded by Henrik Serholt (then the drummer, now the vocalist). Fatal Embrace about Hail Down Deep It had taken a really long time. Or at least it felt long for us, for Candlelight Records to release our debut album Shadowsoul's Garden. So, when it finally came out in November of 1997 we went back into the studio just a few months later and recorded our second album Hail Down Deep. This time around we knew what to expect and what was going to happen when we went into the studio. Christian Silver (then producer now our drummer) was going to haunt us relentlessly about keeping time and getting our playing abilities up to the standard of our peers in the genre. So we went in there with a mission. To record a close to perfect album. A bold mission statement some would say, but it kept us motivated. Hail Down Deep was recorded mixed and mastered in March of 1998 and was scheduled to be released later that year. As it turned out though, we had started playing with other bands at the time. Andreas had joined Sundown with Christian Silver and members from Cemetary and Tiamat. Manne would later go on to join Cemetery and later Beseech. Henric started singing with Lothlorien and Tommy joined Eternal Lies. So Hail Down Deep was left unreleased as we all moved on with other bands and other musical endeavors. When we got back together again as Fatal Embrace and we started talking about writing new music together again, we started talking about releasing Hail Down Deep first and then move on to writing new stuff. As it turned out, it was really inspiring to write new music rather than to release an old album. So that was what we did. We wrote and recorded Manifestum Infernalis, but Hail Down Deep has always been a personal favorite of ours and we are really excited to finally have it released. Since our line-up has changed a bit we felt it would be most fair to the current line-up to let Henric Serholt step up to the microphone and re-record vocals for the album. He is and was back then our lyricist so it was a natural progression for us. The album has newly recorded vocals and a few additional guitars have been added. It was mixed and mastered by Christian Silver in 2024. So here it is. Hail Down Deep. Our past is back to hunt us down.Email Signup
