Metal Shock Finland (World Assault )

Swedish death metal legends THE CROWN will release their new album, Cobra Speed Venom, on March 16th via Metal Blade Records. Produced together with Fredrik Nordstrom at Studio Fredman, the record promises to be one of the biggest surprises of the year. A return to death metal speed and darkness in full glory!

The Crown has now released the third single taken off Cobra Speed Venom: “We Avenge!” – which can be heard here:

“We Awake – We Avenge! Heroic rise and rightful revenge. A mid paced monotonous chant with revolution in the air.”

Comments The Crown on their new album Cobra Speed Venom: “We are really looking forward to finally be able to show our fans how damn good this band can be when the circumstances are right. With that I mean to be able to do an album the way we want to do it: creating as a band, rehearsing as a band, recording as a band. You will hear a band performing here, with fierce energy and hunger!”
