Intense and hellish, insane, heavy, fast and murderous. Yes, this sums up, more or less the debut of this nordic quartet. A debut I said, and listen how good it sounds. Not a single peacfull second, no remorse here. A loaded freight-train galloping in full speed into the unknown. He who is drawn to machine-guns the likes of Limbonic Art (minus the mystical parts and the keys), Emperor's IX Equilibrium, or The Kovenant on hard drugs and engaged into 10th gear (due to Myrkskog's "industrial" overall feel) or some other speedfreaks, will love 'Deathmachine', oh, how much he will like it. They couldn't think of a more suitable album title...
