You cant help but ask if Nightrages new album title doesnt make any hidden references to Marios Iliopoulos fate since leaving both his native Greece and his band Exhumation in 2000 to move to Sweden where the melodeath action was.
First coming through as a supergroup (with Gates-keeper Thomas Lindberg and Per Jensen from The Haunted involved) meant that right from the get-go Nightrage would be faced with insane expectations, that they of course never fulfilled. But to his credit, Iliopoulos never gave up. And the irony of it all is now that Nightrage aint a supergroup no more, so gone are the more commercial leanings of 2007s A New Disease Is Born. Their forth full-length sees them finally coming up with the kind of super-catchy vintage Gothenburg style death metal that In Flames havent pulled off since their Subterranean EP, you know, the sort they ve been dying to achieve since they started almost a decade ago
