{"product_id":"marduk-wormwood-cd","title":"Marduk - Wormwood [CD]","description":"\u003cp\u003eMasterful eleventh full-length album by Swedish band Marduk, *“Wormwood”* stands as one of the most inspired and well-balanced works of their modern era, moving partially away from the exclusively war-driven focus of previous releases to delve into a far darker, more spiritual and existential exploration of death, decay and damnation. Originally released in 2009, the album also marked the arrival of drummer Lars Broddesson, completing an especially strong line-up alongside Mortuus, Morgan Håkansson and Devo Andersson. This latest Century Media reissue presents the album fully remastered by Patrick W. Engel and includes the previously unreleased track *“Shadow Comes”*, recorded during the original *“Wormwood”* sessions, as well as an expanded booklet and restored artwork.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom a compositional standpoint, *“Wormwood”* combines Marduk’s trademark devastating speed and relentless aggression with a far more dynamic and atmospheric approach, alternating blistering black metal assaults with passages of epic, almost ritualistic character, where intensity never overshadows the remarkable attention given to melody, song structures and atmosphere. *“Wormwood”* ultimately reaffirms the band’s ability to evolve without ever compromising their most extreme identity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Century Media","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58227850641756,"sku":"COW003542","price":11.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1023\/3069\/6028\/files\/a3594562694_100_486d2ec6-5179-4937-9130-a3ef7f0f78b2.jpg?v=1783509324","url":"https:\/\/darkwoods.eu\/products\/marduk-wormwood-cd","provider":"Darkwoods","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
