Album Notes & Community Reviews

After a period of profound personal and professional turmoil, the Swedish progressive metal veterans rebound with their remarkably passionate, deeply emotional ninth studio album. 'Hymns for the Broken' perfectly frames Tom S. Englund's incredibly powerful, expressive vocals with highly melodic, fiercely heavy guitar riffs and sprawling, dark keyboard orchestrations. The album is a brilliantly executed, intensely cathartic, and wonderfully progressive return to form.
