{"product_id":"795154143450","title":"ALTERED REALITIES | VINYL RECORD (LP)","description":"\u003cp\u003eA full-length offering of Sovereign's lethal blend of evil death \/ thrash is set to be unshackled via Dark Descent Records! Formed in Oslo 2018 AD, the band have three releases under their belts: Iron Cast (single 2018), Sovereign (demo, 2019), and Neurotic (EP, 2020). Three years in the making, the time has finally come to complete the set with debut album Altered Realities. A monstrous masterwork of old school extreme metal ecstasy. \"Altered Realities is a product of an ever-evolving journey we have taken as a band, from our start in 2018 and culminating in the album's recording in early 2022,\" reflects lead guitarist Tommy Jacobsen. He is joined in the band by former Nocturnal Breed band-mate Vidar Fineidet (guitar), alongside drummer Cato Syversrud, and bassist \/ vocalist Gravskjender. \"We strive to push ourselves, both in terms of speed and technicality, whilst still keeping a groove and dynamic. Our approach to death \/ thrash is an interplay between fast-paced aggression and a slower, more groove-oriented feel. The lyrical themes of the album mirror events and unrest that happened during the time of writing and is in itself a journey.\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SOVEREIGN","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46062106247413,"sku":"795154143450","price":24.02,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0681\/9325\/5669\/files\/01_736ba32c-9f16-4c04-87a6-587e0813247e.jpg?v=1731290098","url":"https:\/\/thevinylvista.com\/products\/795154143450","provider":"Vinyl Vista","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
