"THE BRUTAL NEW STUDIO ALBUM FROM THE REINVIGORATED UK DEATH METAL LEGENDS, REUNITING THE CORE ORIGINAL TRIO OF JOHN WALKER, CARL STOKES & IAN BUCHANEN
One of the UK’s premiere death metal purveyors of the late 80’s and early 90’s, & responsible for such genre classics as ‘To the Gory End’ (1990) & ‘Death Shall Rise’ (1991), Cancer marks 30 years of existence with their sixth full length studio album, reuniting all three original core members - John Walker on guitar/vocals, Ian Buchanan on bass and Carl Stokes on drums - for the first time since 1995.
With fan-demand & interest in the band ever-increasing in recent years, including numerous high-profile festival appearances, this was the much-needed catalyst that spurred Cancer on to return to their classic inspirational sound when writing new material.
‘Shadow Gripped’ features ten songs of brutal old school death metal, and was recorded at Foel studios, with Simon Efemey (Paradise Lost, Napalm Death, Amorphis) handling production and mixing duties alongside the band. Also features a guest appearance from Anders Nyström of Swedish deathlords, Bloodbath."
