Album Notes & Community Reviews

Returning to the conceptual focus of their legendary 1999 album 'Panzer Division Marduk', the veteran Swedish quartet dedicates 'Frontschwein' entirely to the horrors of World War II. The record abandons none of the band's trademark ferocity, executing blistering blast beats and grim, suffocating tremolo riffs with militaristic precision. It stands as an unrelentingly aggressive and historically obsessed statement within traditional black metal.
