Swedish thrash metal juggernaut MEZZROW are back and louder than ever: Today marks the release of their brand-new studio album, “Embrace The Awakening”, out now via ROAR – A Division Of Reigning Phoenix Music, marking a thunderous new chapter in the band’s legacy.

To crank the mayhem up another notch, MEZZROW have also just unleashed a crushing new music video for the blistering track “Sleeping Cataclysm”, delivering a full-frontal assault of razor-sharp riffs and apocalyptic groove. No nostalgia trip here; this is present-day thrash with teeth!

“Embrace The Awakening” is now available on 2-CD Digipak including the Keep It True – Live bonus album, 1-LP Vinyl in Bloodred Sky Marbled edition, as well as in Digital formats: Order your copy of this must-have rager, one that belongs into every well-sorted thrash metal record collection, now at: https://mezzrow.rpm.link/embracePR

MEZZROW built themselves a name in the thrash metal scene during the late eighties with their critically acclaimed demo tapes, “Frozen Soul” and “Cross of Tormention”. In 1990, they released their classic debut album “Then Came the Killing” through Active Records (Candlemass a.o.), a subsidiary of Music for Nations. The album is still today considered as one of the best, if not the best, thrash metal releases from Sweden and Scandinavia.

During 2021 MEZZROW rose from the ashes, when bass player Conny Welén (ex-Hexenhaus) and singer Uffe Pettersson (ex-Rosicrucian) decided to make a new mark in the thrash metal world of today, together with new guitarists Magnus Söderman (Nightrage) and Ronnie Björnström (ex-Defiatory, ex-Aeon), as well as drummer Alvaro “Alvis” Svanerö (Imperial Domain).

Following their comeback album “Summon Thy Demons” (2023, Fireflash Records) and the much-acclaimed ”Keep It True – Live” record, MEZZROW started writing material for their third album. Eight new songs were later on chosen to become “Embrace The Awakening”, a Bay Area Thrash Metal monster made in Sweden! ”We wanted the new album to sound a bit more straight forward without stepping away too much from „Summon Thy Demons“,” Uffe recently said. “We feel that we’ve achieved that and at the same time kept our roots intact.”

After setting the tone with their crushing singles “Architects Of The Silent War” and “Symphony Of Twisted Souls”, MEZZROW now release their most sinister track yet, “In Shadows Deep”, accompanied by a gripping new video clip!

Bassist Conny Welén reveals the story behind the song:
“At some point during a career as a metal musician you probably want to write a song about Jack The Ripper. Right? This is our Jack The Ripper-song, from a first person perspective. And it’s also the heaviest song on the album!”

“In Shadows Deep” plunges listeners into the mind of one of history’s darkest figures. With razor-edged riffs, haunting atmospheres, and an unrelenting groove, the song shows MEZZROW at their most intense and narrative-driven.

Following the previously-released, first album single “Architects Of The Silent War”, today, the band 

strikes hard with a crushing video clip for their brand new single “Symphony Of Twisted Souls” – a track that once again couldn’t be more relevant in today’s turbulent times. Blending razor-sharp riffs with relentless thrash metal energy, the song captures the brutality of war while channeling it into pure headbanging power. Guitarist Magnus Söderman sums it up: 

“Another song with a war theme. This one is metaphorically dealing with the cruel world on the battlefield and how soldiers have to adapt to this. The ongoing war in the Ukraine was the inspiration. The main riff here gets you going and you really wanna bang your head to the rhythm!”

Following previously-released, stand-alone singles, “As Fear Unfolds” and a killer cover version of Ghost‘s “Ritual”, Swedish thrash metal force MEZZROW have finally revealed the first details of their forthcoming, new studio album! Entitled “Embrace The Awakening”, the band’s third full-length rager will be released on November 14, 2025 via ROAR.

Today, the thrash metal torchbearers are presenting a video clip for their first official single taken off “Embrace The Awakening”, the brutal-as-hell “Architects Of The Silent War”! Singer Uffe Pettersson comments:

”We’re really proud of this one and it has all the thrash metal elements you can demand! Lyrically inspired by the dark and sophisticated world of the constant cyber war, and cyber attacks globally, which affects us all the time without us knowing anything about it more or less.”

Perfect in time before Walpurghis Night, when rituals will take place, the Swedish thrash metal force MEZZROW returns with a unique cover version of the GHOST classic “Ritual”!

While the song coincidentally drops at the same time as the release of GHOST’s new album, MEZZROW frontman Uffe Pettersson reveals: ”It’s always special when it comes to cover versions. It would be a natural thing for us to do a cover of a Vio-lence tune or perhaps something from Forbidden’s old catalogue. But too predictable! So we set our sights on something Swedish and more unusual. ”Ritual” is an old Ghost-classic and kind of a cult song from their first album. From our point of view it was a perfect song to turn into a thrashy track and it’s quite catchy with a strong chorus. You can also detect a resemblance in the lyrics for all of us who are fans of the Omen movies. Enjoy!”

“Ritual” was mixed by Ronnie Björnström (Meshuggah a.o.) and was mastered by Tomas ”Plec” Johansson (Watain a.o.). Once again, this enthralling cover version showcases the diversity of MEZZROW. Stream it now on all digital services at: https://mezzrow.rpm.link/ritualPR

Twelve new songs are now ready for recording and this process has slightly begun. As new track releases, such as the previously-shared “As Fear Unfolds” (listen HERE!) or today’s premiere of “Ritual”, fans can expect a killer album with high intense Bay Area thrash with a Swedish melodic touch. 2025 – get ready for some new MEZZROW Thrash Metal!

Legendary Swedish cult act MEZZROW returns to the thrash metal scene with their new single, “As Fear Unfolds”! A music video for the first harbinger of a new album to follow in 2025, is now premiering below.

The band comments: “Recorded during the Summon Thy Demons-sessions and one of the first songs we wrote back in early 2021 (The lyrics were actually written for another song way back in 1992). It kind of stands out from the other songs on the album with its proggy approach! Within the band we call it our ”Mercyful Fate-song”, with all its different tempo changes and technical vibes going on. This is also the first studio recording featuring Alvaro ”Alvis” Svanerö on drums.”

“As Fear Unfolds” is out now via ROAR and streaming on all digital providers at: https://mezzrow.rpm.link/asfearunfolds
