Formed in 2020, CENTURY have hastened their ascent of the true-metal underground on the strength of 2023\u0092s The Conquest of Time debut album. While both members of the duo are veterans of the metal underground, with CENTURY do they uphold the noble, heroic sound of early Swedish heavy metal \u0096 namely, the cult icons of Heavy Load, Overdrive, Gotham City, and Axewitch. Now, with their second album, they\u0092re set to eclipse that mini-classic.<\/p>\n
Titled Sign of the Storm, CENTURY\u0092s sophomore full-length builds on all the strengths of the debut and sends everything further back in time. Amazingly, Sign of the Storm sounds time-stamped strictly at 1982. From songwriting \u0096 brisk in its energy but never belabored, almost casual in its overt heroism, with riffs on the right side of hot-rockin\u0092 and not without a twinge of melancholy \u0096 on to the production \u0096 clean and spacious but not lacking grit, \u0093big\u0094 but in an authentically underground way, conveying both castle high and dungeon low \u0096 CENTURY here offer swords & sorcery heavy metal like few others in the modern era. To say Sign of the Storm sounds truly OLD is not a disservice to either that production nor especially the songwriting (or even guitarist\u0092s Staffan Tengn\u00e9r\u0092s impassioned, olde-worlde vocals); it simply underlines the fact that the duo are absolute masters of their eldritch domestic idiom, and that this latest album deserves to be spoken in the same discussion as those aforementioned legends. \u0093No Time for Tomorrow\u0094 \u0096 the medieval metal past is alive with CENTURY! <\/p>\n
