Tad Morose - Modus Vivendi (LP)

Facts Swedish Power Metal! Tad Morose have long been one of the leading bands of Scandinavian power metal. On their sixth album Modus Vivendi in 2003, the Swedes picked up where their successful previous albums left off and even went up a notch stylistically. Typical trademarks, a mystical cover by Jan Meininghaus, the voluminous voice of shouter Urban Breed, the double-barrelled guitar playing and a fat production (Fredrik Nordström - Dream Evil, In Flames, Dimmu Borgir, among others) in the Fredman Studio made Modus Vicendi probably their strongest album. So it's time to re-release this masterpiece 20 years later via MDD Records. Even after all these years, Modus Vivendi is without doubt a statement that has set the bar for years to come at a level that can hardly be reached.
