█ A unique Entombed experience with original members █
█ Nicke Andersson, Uffe Cederlund and Alex Hellid █
█ performing their second album ôClandestineö for █
█ the albumÆs 25th Anniversary. █
█ Threeman Recordings now presents Act 2: The █
█ Entombed performance û A concert in two acts based █
█ entirely on the Swedish bandÆs acclaimed album █
█ "Clandestine" from 1991. It is a unique concert █
█ where the pioneering album is played from █
█ beginning to end. From the opening "Living Dead" █
█ to closing "Through The Collonades ". █
█ In the first act, the Malm÷ Symphony Orchestra and █
█ Choir performs Clandestine, arranged for orchestra █
█ by Thomas Von Wachenfeldt (Wachenfeldt), with the █
█ original members from Entombed sitting in as part █
█ of the ensemble. In the second act, the band █
█ performs the entire album live in the original █
█ version for the very first time. █
█ (- It is amazing to experience the musical journey █
█ with an orchestra and we really enjoyed the █
█ experience, says Alex Hellid) █
█ (- Allowing EntombedÆs suggestive music to meet █
█ Symphony Orchestra and Choir is a very creative █
█ and exciting concept. Composer Thomas Von █
█ WachenfeldtÆs arrangement contains challenges for █
█ both orchestral musicians and for me as a █
█ conductor, as the starting point has been to █
█ interpret the "Clandestine" in a classical, █
█ symphonic format, rather than plank the music █
█ outright, says conductor Josef Rhedin who will █
█ conduct the concert.) █
█ █
█ Clandestine █
█ Seasoned Music journalist / TV host Per █
█ Sinding-Larsen, is one of those who has a special █
█ place in the heart for the album "Clandestine": █
█ - With "Clandestine" Entombed surprised the hard █
█ rock audience with force, weight and musical █
█ variation on an album that still feels relevant █
█ and strong. "Clandestine" not only became an █
█ instant trendsetter for Swedish and foreign death █
█ metal. This is music that belongs in the place of █
█ honor among the classics of the great Swedish █
█ record shelves. █
█ █
█ Entombed █
█ Entombed was inducted into the Swedish Music Hall █
█ of Fame in 2014 with the following motivation: █
█ "Hard rock is just as typical of growing up in █
█ medium-sized Swedish towns as football and mopeds. █
█ Hard rock is Swedish folk music with studded wrist █
█ bands instead of tasseled garters. After two █
█ decades of Anglo-Saxon hard-rock a Swedish band, █
█ Entombed, became one of the world leaders in death █
█ metal. A subculture that has spread throughout the █
█ world, mutated in various forms, and after 20 █
█ years continues to be just as vital. Entombed is █
█ part of the heavier internationalization of █
█ Swedish popular music - all categories." █
█ The band was founded in 1987 under the name of █
█ Nihilist. With its catchy, versatile but still █
█ rock hard music Entombed pioneered Scandinavian █
█ death metal, which was different from its American █
█ counterpart mainly by the characteristic, █
█ chainsaw-like guitar sound. The special sound they █
█ got by tuning down their guitars three full steps █
█ (to C or less), by using a maxed out Boss HM-2 █
█ Heavy Metal pedal, in combination with a guitar █
█ running through a Boss DS-1 Distortion Pedal. The █
█ debut album "Left Hand Path" was released in 1990 █
█ and followed up the following year with █
█ "Clandestine". █
█ For the 25th anniversary of Clandestine original █
█ members Nicke Andersson, Uffe Cederlund and Alex █
█ Hellid performed the album from start to finish █
█ together with the perfect fitting Robert Andersson █
█ (Vocals) and Edvin Aftonfalk (bass) of Morbus █
█ Chron. The evening also saw the Malm÷ Symphonic █
█ Orchestra featuring Entombed perform Thomas von █
█ WachenfeldtÆs stunning arrangement of Clandestine █
█ for orchestra. █
█ █
█ Thomas von Wachenfeldt on Entombed Clandestine █
█ album: █
█ Paradigm exists on all levels. In all places, at █
█ all times. Sometimes they are easy to identify and █
█ evokes immediate effect. It could be a shot in █
█ Sarajevo or a bloody guillotine in Paris û events █
█ that change a whole world. But it may as well be █
█ an individualÆs own life-world as, at a particular █
█ time and a special event on different levels, █
█ takes new turns. We carry everyone on such events. █
█ In my own case, one of my biggest paradigm shifts █
█ occurred in a local market in neighboring town █
█ when I was 12 years old. Me and a friend stood and █
█ flown in a back with vinyl records and our eyes █
█ stuck on a suggestively cluttered album cover with █
█ a hugely cool logo. Entombed û Clandestine. █
█ I had already enjoyed listening to heavy music and █
█ preferably listening to Hell Awaits on 33 rpm. My █
█ cassette with MetallicaÆs Master of Puppets, and █
█ Ride The Lightning on the B-side was always █
█ spinning in my Walkman. But when me and my friend █
█ came home to him and put the newly purchased album █
█ on the gramophone player, there came some horrific █
█ but still fascinating sounds through the speakers. █
█ This was something completely different û the true █
█ soundtrack to all the b and c horror movies IÆve █
█ ever seen. The atmosphere was hauntingly horrific. █
█ The record became my absolute favorite album and I █
█ immediately went to the record store in the nearby █
█ city of Hudiksvall. There I found the CD Left hand █
█ path and an Entombed t-shirt where ôSatan Σlskar █
█ dig [Satan loves you]ö was written on the back. I █
█ had found my first favorite band. And I was in my █
█ home village, basically alone with it. From █
█ Entombed, a search for new rushes began and behind █
█ the corner I found Morbid Angel, Deicide, Grave, █
█ Dismember and many others. █
█ The years passed and during the second half of the █
█ 1990s, the death metal scene was poisoned by blues █
█ and rock. Unfortunately, Entombed was one of the, █
█ or to put it straight û the main reason, to cause █
█ Carcass, Gorefest and others to be demolished into █
█ blues or rock n æroll bands. I therefore left the █
█ metal scene and instead searched for darkness in █
█ Swedish folk music and the classical masters, █
█ which led me to study classical violin and █
█ composition for six years. █
█ The years went by and during my career as a folk █
█ fiddler and violinist, the death metal scene █
█ recovered. My old favorite bands once again █
█ released music with artistic value and Entombed █
█ crowned a series of solid records with Serpent █
█ Saints. Over time, I searched back for my musical █
█ roots and started my own band Wachenfeldt. During █
█ the same time, I received a request from Tommy █
█ Rehn, who was planning a concert with his band █
█ Corroded and the Nordic Chamber Orchestra. I was █
█ asked to arrange for the orchestra and was asked █
█ what other band would suit the project. Without █
█ hesitation, I said Entombed and Clandestine. The █
█ tools I had received during my compositional █
█ studies helped me to understand ClandestineÆs █
█ songs and structures on a deeper level. And beyond █
█ that there were obvious classical influences █
█ Shortly thereafter Alex Hellid called me up and it █
█ showed that he had been thinking exactly the same █
█ thoughts. After about an hour in the phone, a █
█ marathon work began which took three months to █
█ complete. The mission was to ôreturnö █
█ ClandestineÆs songs into an orchestral form. My █
█ suspicions had proved true. The music of █
█ Clandestine was written after prolonged abuse of █
█ horror movies and, above all, the music by █
█ Christopher Young. █
█ Initially, I thought that Entombed would play the █
█ songs as on the record and the orchestra would be █
█ there in the background. But after the first demo █
█ was sent to Alex, I realized that it would be the █
█ other way around. The orchestra should be in the █
█ forefront and the musicians in Entombed should sit █
█ among the other musicians in the symphony █
█ orchestra. This placed considerably higher demands █
█ on me as an organizer, as the arrangements would █
█ carry themselves and sound like regular symphonic █
█ music. But! This was far more interesting than it █
█ usually was with these kind of collaborations █
█ after Metallica and San FranciscoÆs symphony █
█ orchestraÆs project S&M. █
█ The work of arranging and orchestrating █
█ Clandestine has in many ways been an introspective █
█ journey. At the same time as I analyzed the █
█ smallest note at a micro level, many things have █
█ been revealed. First: Clandestine is at all levels █
█ nothing but an ingenious work and many times a █
█ thought has struck me. Did the four members Nicke, █
█ Alex, Uffe and Lasse act as mediators of a █
█ metaphysical power materialized by these four █
█ teenagers? Like the unyielding and fierce power █
█ that flowed through the young Mozart in his early █
█ work. █
█ I have also realized that Clandestine have shaped █
█ a great deal of my aesthetic view and taste û █
█ regardless of whether I play classical music, █
█ Swedish folk music or death metal. I always come █
█ back to and have always been attracted to the █
█ gritty endless darkness. █
