Description
Shadow Kingdom Records is proud to present Cruel Force's long-awaited
third album,'Dawn of the Axe', on CD and vinyl LP formats.
Titled Dawn of the Axe, Cruel Force's long-awaited new album is, in many
ways, a new chapter for the band
Dawn of the Axe harkens to dustier, more archaic times - ones where subgenre
delineations weren't so strict and all was mostly heavy metal. For sure, Cruel
Force can still thrash with the best of them. The nine songs comprising the 39-
minute album exude a wider variety of moods and dynamics, and also sees Cruel
Force exploring their more epic side, with three of those songs topping six
minutes. No matter the mood or dynamic, though, energy bristles from every
second of 'Dawn of the Axe'- riff, rhythm, lead, vocal, everything - and with the
slightly-more-atmospheric recording style, it all gels together to create the band's
strongest and most complete statement to date. No matter how you (axe) slice it,
there's no wimping out whatsoever!
It's rare for a band to be away a full decade and then come back with their best
work, but such is the case with Cruel Force and'Dawn of the Axe'. There's some
strange magick brewing in the Devil's Dungeon, and they've crossed the Styx to
bring you that Power Surge!
