100% Uncompromising True Death Metal !!!
The Iconic Pacific Northwest Death Metal Legends INFERNAL LEGION return after a 7 year hiatus with their highly anticipated fourth album “Under The Cloven Hoof”. Surpassing the acclaim and critical praise of 2011’s “The Spear of Longinus”, INFERNAL LEGION make more than just a return, they firmly trample all under cloven hoof with unadulterated, 100% authentic and uncompromising True Death Metal.
Heavy yet memorable riffing with melodic overtones in the classic Swedish tradition ala Dissection, anthemic hook-laden chorus and raging guitar solos are just a few of the qualities that make “Under The Cloven Hoof” an immediate Death Metal classic! With a crushing sound based upon the untouchable early 1990’s classic-era of US Death Metal and roots firmly planted in traditional 80’s Thrash (Infernal Majesty, classic Slayer), INFERNAL LEGION remains unfettered by trend shifts, restoring true Death Metal to a mighty, morbid craft. More importantly, INFERNAL LEGION know how to write actual songs - Something forgotten by the majority of todays so-called Death Metal Bands. Songs that stick in your mind, burn your soul and leave you trampled Under The LEGION’s Cloven Hoof !
A Pacific Northwest Death Metal institution for over 18 years, INFERNAL LEGION Trample all that is Holy with their newest offering of Infernal Curses “Under The Cloven Hoof”!
