Two towering giants of Death Metal - Rogga Johansson (Paganizer, Revolting, Ribspreader, etc) and Paul Speckmann (Master) - have joined forces to once again kick the world in the ass! Johansson & Speckmann's The Germs of Circumstance will be released October 9 on Soulseller Records.
"A solid wall of crusty death metal played by masters of the genre."
- Decibel
"A back-burning fire of an album that cuts savagely between death metal, thrash, and hardcore. Johansson & Speckmann remain focused on their craft, and they offer near-mastery on this album."
- Rebel Noise
“The Germs of Circumstance is faster and dirtier than any of the previous four LPs. Exceptional Death Metal."
- The Metal Wanderlust
"The short and punchy offerings leaving no time to dwell, just a ton of head-banging enjoyment to be had. The duo’s immeasurable talents combining to craft what is as clear-cut heaviness as you can possibly get."
- Games, Brrraaains & A Head-Banging Life
"This album really has it all. It's angry, rough, and polished all at the same time. The only thing, it's going to leave you wanting more."
- Glacially Musical
"Old-school, blasting death metal, delivered with the intense simplicity that both cult figures are known for. This is headbanging death all the way!"
- Metal Bulletin
“The Germs of Circumstance is an easy 5 out of 5 broken necks. The album starts with a sonic firestorm that finishes with a flurry of fists to your ears."
- Breaking Necks Metal Blog
"The death metal dream duo."
- Toilet ov Hell
"This platter all sounds faster and harder and more aggressive than before. The old school doesn't betray."
- HardRockHeavyMetal
"There's plenty of aggression, as one could imagine from two death metal greats combining forces."
