Metal Blade, “Dark red sky" marbled vinyl, ltd. 500, gatefold, poster, download card
LIK - the modern day purveyors of classic Swedish death metal - gloriously return to action with their fourth album ‘Necro’ via Metal Blade on April 18th, 2025! Standing loud and proud over so many imitators, ‘Necro’ is the musical equivalent of a classic shock-horror movie that’s drenched in blood and gore and packed with over-the-top extremities.
Delve beyond the zombie-fied cover art created by Stockholm-based tattooist and artist Jens Olsson (Ink Fanatics), ‘Necro’ serves as a reminder of just how special and exciting the genre is: packed with blood-curdling fantasy stories about war, death, zombies, world apocalypse, murder; and stacked with disgustingly-good rotten riffs. LIK are proudly staying true to the DNA and ethos of the music they’ve collectively loved since their teenage years - cutting straight to the jugular in true quintessential death metal style.
Continuing to fly the Swedish death metal flag across the global stage, ‘Necro’ is born out of pure love and respect for the genre and its creators’ artistic visions to keep pushing their own musical boundaries. “The ambition with ‘Necro’ was to make an even better record than the previous albums,” says Tomas. “I think this one is really tied together. As it started growing and the songs got put together we were 100% focused on making that LIK album. I really think we made a really good death metal album, we found the right ingredients to make this one work.”
