Vast Reaches Unclaimed, by Majesties

Vast Reaches Unclaimed

by Majesties

supported by

Ronnie The Horned Serious AOTY contender ! Led by members of Obsequiae and Inexorum, there was not too much doubt about the quality of Majesties : any Swedish 90s Melodic Death Metal fan will certainly be conquered by this album which clearly bears the banner of this school, while avoiding a simple copy-paste. A first opus that will make a mark ! Favorite track: Seekers Of The Ineffable.

SteveSmells I guess any number of bands could make an homage to glory-era In Flames and I would bite out of curiosity. But what really pushes this from gimmick to brilliance is the execution. Song writing is super strong and it has just enough Obsequiae shining through to flavor it. Super entertaining! Favorite track: City Of Nine Gates.

boulderrr Not a single song is a hard miss with a lot to love. listened to the whole thing front to back in one sitting. 8.7/10 Favorite track: Temporal Anchor.

about

The creative centers of Obsequiae and Inexorum come together as one in the preeminent new force known as Majesties. To those familiar with the individual pieces that make up Majesties, the sound on debut album ‘Vast Reaches Unclaimed’ will be another striking addition to their respective oeuvres, recalling the glorious days of Wrong Again and No Fashion Records.

Evoking a time when Gothenburg was starting to unseat Stockholm as the unimpeachable city for Swedish Death Metal in the mind of the international metal scene, Majesties have that intrinsic sense of Death Metal’s rabid intensity and the effortlessly satisfying melodic ability that made albums like ‘The Jester Race’ and its immediate forbears instant classics. The mix of major key melodies and twin guitar harmonies snaking through every track ornament the vigorous riff eruptions and anguished vocals in a sheen of gleaming brilliance that proves an exhilarating triumph to behold.

Without a hint of the corruption the style experienced in a post ‘Slaughter of the Soul’ world, ‘Vast Reaches Unclaimed’ exists as a fervent reminder of what was and what again shall be. Majesties are re-animating the corpse of the true Melodic Death Metal style that both divided and invigorated the Death Metal scene of the mid 1990s and bring it into 2023 like it never left, sounding as novel and thrilling as ever.
