The Defaced

Swedish neo-thrash metallic quintet the Defaced includes vocalist Henrik Sjöwall, guitarists Klas Ideberg and Mattias Svensson, bassist Jörgen Lofberg, and drummer Henry Ranta. Many of these music artists are familiar brands in the Swedish picture — Ranta has in Soilwork, while Ideberg and Lofberg are people of Darkane. Nevertheless, the Defaced’s music provides less in keeping with the even more typically “Swedish” sounding melodic loss of life steel of either of these bands, instead writing even more in keeping with American works such as for example Pantera and Machine Mind. The Defaced released a five-song demonstration in 2000, ultimately leading these to indication a cope with the Italian Scarlet Information imprint. Their initial discharge, Domination Commence, arrived on Scarlet in 2001 and was certified for discharge in THE UNITED STATES by Nuclear Blast, which released it the same season.
