***Shadowlands Of Darkness is killer death metal tunes inspired and captured with the magical putrid essence of the old era of bands like: Repulsion, Death, Master and Bolt Thrower. Although the Swedish death metal band DEATHSWARM was formed in the summer of 2017, the idea for this project was born three years earlier when guitarist ANDERS ERIKSSON and vocalist HEVAL BOZARSIAN (both members of SARCASM) and guitarist and songwriter JOHAN HAAG, talked about starting a project together (while drinking lots of beer and listening to their favorite band Bolt Thrower) and to write some really old style of death metal music to pay tribute to the past when this adored genre was new and exciting. Time passed, members were busy with other projects, and so no one talked about this idea which more or less was forgotten and dissipated in the fog of thousand hangovers. And when least expected, Johan revealed (after a few beers) that he had written about 10 songs for this project. Surprised, delighted and amazed were the other guys by how this had turned out and convinced each other that this material must be recorded and be released as an album. Lyrics were written, pre-productions began, and more beer were opened and they were ready. Inspired primarily by old gods like Bolt Thrower, Autopsy, Master, Death, Repulsion, the band was armed with some killer death metal tunes that captured the whole magical putrid essence of that old era.
