HEXED – The Swedish Symphonic Progressive Metal band is back with their second album ‘Pagans Rising’. Along with the powerful lead vocals of Tina Gunnarsson, this theme album has great songwriting mixed with strong choruses and guttural growl. Written with inspiration by the history of Sweden’s witch-hunting hysteria in the late 17th century, ‘Pagan’s Rising’ is a perfect blend of spellbinding guitar melodies, chugging riffs, dark symphonic orchestrations and progressive elements. Behind the unique sound of this masterpiece is the talented mixing/mastering engineer Ronnie Björnström (Sorcerer, Aeon etc.) ‘Pagan’s Rising’ is a much heavier, darker version of HEXED.
