Having celebrated their 30th anniversary in 2020 [their first eight years spent as Crown Of Thorns], The Crown have proven themselves one of the most enduring forces in death metal. In 2021 they further up the ante with Royal Destroyer , a record that sets a new standard for the genre. It is our album number ten, so now we are in the big boys club, says bassist Magnus Olsfelt. I think it in some ways is our crowning achievement, and it encompasses our sound across all albums on one defining record. It s got it all – the early 90s death metal stuff, the haunting melodies, the thrash, the punk, the grind, the heavy metal and the more epic and doomy stuff.
