Hypocrisy's Penetralia to be re-released in May
Is there a point in introducing Hypocrisy? This modern metal phenomenon lead by musical mastermind and ?Godfather of Gothenburg? - Peter Tägtgren is well-known to all death metal maniacs worldwide, gaining huge acclaim and respect with each of its releases. ?Penetralia?, Hypocrisy?s stunning debut album, takes us back to the band?s beginnings, when Tägtgren was still fascinated with old-school American death metal? The album was originally released on October 5th, 1992 and immediately gained a handful of positive comments from both fans and critics. The album was recorded with Jonas Őstenberg (guitar), Lars Szöke (drums), Mikael Hedlund (bass) and Masse Bromberg (vocals), while Tägtgren himself took up the lead guitarist duties. This collaboration brought the most brutal and straightforward LP in the band?s entire career. Dazzling guitar work, intense bass performance (hard to believe that when the album was released, Hedlund was only 16 years old!), crushingly heavy drumming and Bromberg?s brutal vocals made up for a truly apocalyptic death metal experience.
Metal Mind Productions will re-release this fantastic album on 12th May 2008 in Europe and 8th July 2008 in USA (via MVD). New digipak edition, limited to numerated 2000 copies includes 2 bonus tracks! Digitally remastered using 24-Bit process on golden disc.
