Boasting a claim like this album is going to bring fans back to the glory days of Gothenburg and the melodic death metal scene is never a good way to start off a record, but after a few spins of this one, they sorta did...
I'm new to Nightrage, so this one may not be the best interpretation for a newcomer. But I am no newcomer to the melodeath genre, and I gotta say that Wearing a Martyr's Crown actually does sound like the good ol' days of the Gothenburg scene. This is far from flawless though, given the somewhat iffy production quality and overall mixing of the record. Still, this one should play out as a pretty enjoyable listen for fans of the genre.
