Genre: Old School Death Metal
Label: Cyclone Empire
Paganizer is the most characteristic
band of Rogga Johansson, the man responsible for many extreme metal acts
in the Swedish scene today. While all are inclined towards the
traditional sound of their country, his inspiration seems to be
never-ending and this EP was a direct sequence of their last album
“World Lobotomy”.
The band’s sound has a specific
wavelength and “Cadaver Casket” is exactly what one would expect,
meaning direct Swedish death metal. The classic compositions with a
fairly clean production and full sound, do not deviate much from the
latest releases of the band and contribute one more mini album with more
of Rogga’s music, which will not leave the ones who dig it any room for
complaints.
Strangely enough, I liked this EP more
than their last two albums, maybe because the original drummer Matties
Fiebig returned to the line-up. The tracks here feel a bit more
energetic than before and might be some of the best in quality the band
has offered the last four years.
There is the horror movie picturesque
both at the cover (a work of Daniel “Devilish” Johnsson) and the song
titles, giving an even more beautiful facette to the record, which is
intended mainly for pleasure and fun. Many bands continue what Entombed
and Dismember began two decades ago, and Paganizer is definitely one of
them.
