The Contaminated Void

Japanese pressing adds the bonus track 'Far Beyond Driven'. Sweden's Coldworker storms out of the gates with it's debut the Contaminated Void. Conceived and created by Anders Jakobson (of the legendary NASUM) and his hand-picked selection of burgeoning metal players, Coldworker's razor-sharp attack is destined to send shockwaves through the international extreme scene. The Contaminated Void's fourteen tracks swarm with equal parts crushing riffs, blazing speed, and menacing vocal onslaughts. Outrageously agile guitars balance melodic leads with relentless aggression. from start to finish, the Contaminated Void burns with a ferocity and intensity rarely seen in any genre of metal. Simply stated, Coldworker and the Contaminated Void is among the finest Scandinavian metal this side of the 21st century. Relapse. 2006.
