"Clandestine (FDR Remastered)" es la edición definitiva del emblemático álbum que lanzó Entombed en 1991 y ahora está disponible en formato CD con una meticulosa remasterización usando tecnología Full Dynamic Range para ofrecer el mejor sonido posible y mantener toda su potencia original intacta. Este disco recoge toda la energía cruda y contundencia que convirtió a ?Clandestine? en una obra fundamental del death metal sueco gracias a temas como ?Living Dead?, ?Sinners Bleed? o ?Stranger Aeons?. El sello Earache ha sido desde finales de los años ochenta uno de los grandes impulsores internacionales del metal extremo y sigue apostando por ediciones cuidadas que preservan joyas históricas como esta para nuevas generaciones de oyentes exigentes. Por su parte, Entombed es considerada una banda icónica dentro del género: sus primeros trabajos definieron el sonido característico del death metal escandinavo e influyeron decisivamente sobre innumerables grupos posteriores alrededor del mundo.
Certainly, the landmark work of the entire Death Metal style and its particular subgenre is Swedish Death Metal. A monolithic canvas of drum rolls, buzzing guitars and eerie screams of a villainous vocalist. At first listening it seemed that I was, so to speak, buried alive. The atmosphere of thick, rich black soil that clogged the mouth and eye sockets. There is not a single passable or superfluous song. Each time the vocals reach the cemetery surface, they are original and unique. "Living Dead" sets the whole mood and promises difficult next 40 minutes. Goosebumps run down the furry back from the obscurantist roar rushing into the darkness. "Blessed Be" gallops so that the legs themselves dance the dance of St. Vitus. The crescendo of "Chaos Breed" makes my mind rush into a bottomless tunnel. "Through The Collonades" plunge into the languor of the dungeons of Cthulhu. A rich darkness softly envelops the consciousness. And what is the result? After listening, there is a feeling that you slept like a baby and the whole world is happy about your arrival. There are rumors that the vocals belong to drummer Nick Andersson, Johnny Dordevic is indicated on the covers. Here is everything for which we love Death Metal - the atmosphere, the beastly rage, the brutality of the gut, floating in a rainbow and reverberating oily broth. Unfortunately, the band did not produce anything like this in the future, leaving the mainstream for experiments. The album cover is made by the artist Dan Seagrave - if you look at his works on the official website, you will get a lot of pleasure from science fiction mixed with fantasy.

An old school death metal album you must listen to. I dare to say that this is their best masterpiece.
Listen to this cool drumming in the second song.
