NECROPHOBIC Share Video Interview With Cover Artist JENS RYDÉN; Lyric Video Posted For New Song "Grace Of The Past"

Swedish blackened death metal masters, Necrophobic, are now sharing an in-depth chat between the band and photographer/graphic designer Jens Rydén (Thyrfing, ex-Naglfar, etc.) about the creation of the artwork for In the Twilight Grey. The clip can be viewed below:

This interview also celebrates the debut of Necrophobic's latest single, "Grace Of The Past," which is heard in the background of the clip and is also now available on all streaming services here. Watch a lyric video for the song below:

Necrophobic will release their 10th studio album, In The Twilight Grey, on March 15 via Century Media Records. The band recently shared a guitar playthrough video for the album's first single, "Stormcrow". Watch below:

With over thirty years of activity, nefarious service under their spikes and bulletbelts, Necrophobic are undisputed legends of the death and black metal scene. Formed in 1989 by drummer Joakim Sterner, the Stockholm blackhearts propagated a singular and fearless vision from the very start. Eschewing the self-conscious amateurism and primitive sonics that many of their peers held dear, Necrophobic established a bold and vivid identity of their own, conjuring a densely melodic, but endlessly wicked take on macabre extreme metal that countless lesser bands have since emulated.

Yet again, In The Twilight Grey was produced, mixed and mastered by Fredrik Folkare (of death metal icons Unleashed) at Chrome Studios, Stockholm and engineered in close collaboration by Folkare and the band themselves. For the artwork they teamed up with Jens Rydén, another likeminded institution from the Swedish scene.
