More To Come

Grave don’t follow trends. The Swedes don’t care what’s hip. Grave aren’t interested in the next big thing. This might sound atavistic, but Grave, since forming out of the ashes of Corpse in 1988, have made death metal their own. That’s right. From classic debut full-length, Into the Grave, to 2012’s celebrated Endless Procession of Souls, the Gotlanders imprint on death metal has been legendary. They’ve influenced and informed hundreds, if not thousands of longhairs and axe-slayers to take on the most brutal form of music known to mankind. “It’s kind of weird when younger bands tell me that we influenced them,” frontman Ola Lindgren croaks. “But, in another way, I have my own idols and favorite bands that made me want to start playing music when I grew up. So, in one way, I can relate to it.”

Growing up in the island town of Visby, Lindgren should’ve had sufficient safe harbor from death metal’s malignant reach. But he succumbed willfully, just as his peers some 5 hours away (by boat) in Stockholm had. Autopsy, Repulsion, Morbid Angel, Napalm Death, and others polluted his young and very impressionable mind and heart with their toxic tempos and superbly evil riffage. By the time he was old enough to drive, death metal had penetrated Lindgren’s lifeblood and there was, officially, no turning back. To think Lindgren and Grave are still going after almost three decades of haunting cemeteries and chapels worldwide is something of a minor miracle. When asked if Lindgren thought he’d be killing it this long on the job, he said, “No, absolutely not. But I’m very glad we’re still rockin’ after all these years.”

Rockin’ is an understatement. Endless Procession of Souls, the group’s first full-length back on Century Media after years on the lam, was heavily lauded by Grave’s ardent fanbase. Praised for its uncompromising relentlessness and hook-laden songs, the Swedes’ 10th full-length continued the scorched earth policy initially set in motion back in 1991 with songs like “Tremendous Pain” and “Eroded”. “In the early days, before getting signed, we followed a lot of bands trying to play their style and sound like them, as I’m sure most bands start out,” the frontman says. “That, however, evolved into us finding our own identity and creating our sound and style.”

From Into the Grave, You’ll Never See, and Soulless to As Rapture Comes, Burial Ground, and Endless Procession of Souls, there’s no denying Grave’s powerful signature. They epitomize death metal and all its tenets. New album, Out of Respect for the Dead, is proof the Swedes have a savage architecture and aren’t about to let the superfluous distract from conquering all. “I think it carries on the ideas we had for Endless Procession of Souls with well-written songs, combined with brutality and groove,” grins Lindgren. “The new album is taking that even further and with another level of aggression.”
