10th anniversary repress of this rare and long out of print modern classic! Founded in 2007, Swallowed sent shock waves through the underground with a trio of filth-encrusted releases (2007's Putrefaction demo, 2008's Epitaph of Nauseation demo, and a self-titled EP in 2010) and caught the attention of the one and only Fenriz, who intoned: "You can just hear for yourself that these slow and bestial Finns are the bee's knees. Hail hail to the good times!" "Unholy hell, bleak dirge, tortured riffs, blackened drone and filthy feedback are some of the elements that make up one of the sickest bands to come out of Finland. They go by the name of Swallowed" added Cvlt Nation, while the Sludgelord has been anxiously awaiting the band's return: "This is some super heavy and dark death/doom metal from Finland right here. While these guys did break up for a while, the band is recently re-activated and I'm really looking forward to a full-length from them." The wait is nearly over now — you have been warned!
