5 out of 5 stars Out of this world DEATH METAL!.......2007-04-29

I listened to the band 13 years ago and forgot about them... until the last album "Midviterblot." Then I got "Sworn Allegiance."

Absolutely phenomenal. All DEATH METAL fans are sick of crappy, noise machines claiming to be death metal bands. This is different. Big time!

ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL MUSIC! If Death Metal started with this it could have been mainstream by now. The instrumentalism is unsurpassed. UNLEASHED is the only band which somehow magically manages to combine DEATH (speed and precision) and OBITUARY (heaviness and raunchiness in melody).
Hats off!
Hats off!

I'm in my 30's and loving the UNLEASHED music.

5 out of 5 stars Very good!!.......2006-01-17

From the cult band Nihilist, there comes Unleashed, along with Entombed were the founder fathers of the swedish death metal scene. My favorite of those two is Unleashed. Their music sounds like raw, primitive and interesting. The vocals from Johnny fits very well. The guitars are good also, with a couple great riffs and the drums are tight. The influence of this band in the death metal scene is uncompromasing!!!

4 out of 5 stars Unleashed is back!!!.......2005-05-09

After their lackluster release of "Hell's Unleashed", this band is doing what they should've done a llllooonnngggg time ago, which was ditch the whole "death-n-roll" thing and go back to the more Nihilist-esque sounding stuff they did in "Where No Life Dwells" and "Shadows In The Deep" (both excellent albums by the way).

Well, these guys have almost completely gone back to their faster, more aggressive past, even having blastbeats on 2 tracks. The opening track "Winterland" was a great opening track, "Destruction (Of The Race Of Men)" was a cool song as well. Other good songs were the mid-paced tracks "The Long-ships Are Coming" and the shred-fest of "Praised Be The Lord". This record has very good production quality as well.

The reason I give this 4 stars instead of 5 is because first of all, half of the lyrics are annoyingly stupid (such as "Only The Dead", "One Night In Nazareth", and "Metalheads"), secondly, those 3 songs I mentioned in the parenthesis are really lame as well. Either way, the good really out-weighs the bad here, so this alum is worth a listen from you.

5 out of 5 stars This is great metal!.......2005-01-18

Unleashed - Sworn Allegiance

If you like death metal at all, even just a couple of bands, I think you should check this one out, because it's excellent. I stumbled across this one and on first listen I thought it was great, it makes an immediate impact on you, and now I hear that this isn't even supposed to be Unleashed's best CD. The first track, Winterland, is one of the highlights, the riff and lyrics have a black metal feel to them, ala Satyricon or Immortal. If you've seen the Lord of the Rings movies, as most of us have, you'll be familiar with the lyrics in Destruction (Of the Race of Men), it quotes some of the lines from the books and film, it's a great death metal song too with a good guitar solo.

Fans of Cannibal Corpse will be right at home with track three, Only The Dead, which has some gory lyrics. The difference is that you can actually understand them here, unlike the guttural growls of Chris Barnes or George Fisher. The song isn't as good as the opening two tracks though. The tracks on this album are very consistent, it's one that you want to put on again once you've finished listening to it. I Bring You Death is one of the best tracks, with a catchy riff and chorus, while One Night in Nazareth is one of my personal favourites, with some [...] lyrics about...I'll let you listen to it. The chorus is catchy and it's the track that will get in your head above all the rest if you listen to this all the way through.

Metalheads has lyrics that are different to any of the other songs, "Come on bang your heads, true metalheads!", and it's a great song to bang your head to. I don't consider myself a big fan of death metal but I loved this, so if you just like a bit of metal try this one out. There are some great solos throughout, it's heavy, and some of the songs are even catchy.

Stand-outs: Winterland, I Bring You Death, One Night in Nazareth

5 out of 5 stars outstanding!!!.......2004-12-22

If you love Swedish death metal like I do, chances are you already know about these guys. They pretty much define it and have done so for over a decade. This album outdoes their last one by leaps and bounds. Better songs, more songs, more of what I like about these guys. Chugging guitars, haunting solos, and ass kicking lyrics with attitude. A must have for death metal fans, no doubt about it.
