After setting the tone with their crushing singles "Architects Of The Silent War" and "Symphony Of Twisted Souls", MEZZROW now release their most sinister track yet, “In Shadows Deep”, accompanied by a gripping new video clip!
Bassist Conny Welén reveals the story behind the song:
“In Shadows Deep” plunges listeners into the mind of one of history’s darkest figures. With razor-edged riffs, haunting atmospheres, and an unrelenting groove, the song shows MEZZROW at their most intense and narrative-driven.

MEZZROW built themselves a name in the thrash metal scene during the late eighties with their critically acclaimed demo tapes, "Frozen Soul" and "Cross of Tormention". In 1990, they released their classic debut album "Then Came the Killing" through Active Records (Candlemass a.o.), a subsidiary of Music for Nations. The album is still today considered as one of the best, if not the best, thrash metal releases from Sweden and Scandinavia.
During 2021 MEZZROW rose from the ashes, when bass player Conny Welén (ex-Hexenhaus) and singer Uffe Pettersson (ex-Rosicrucian) decided to make a new mark in the thrash metal world of today, together with new guitarists Magnus Söderman (Nightrage) and Ronnie Björnström (ex-Defiatory, ex-Aeon), as well as drummer Alvaro "Alvis" Svanerö (Imperial Domain). Following their comeback album “Summon Thy Demons” (2023, Fireflash Records) and the much-acclaimed ”Keep It True – Live” record, MEZZROW started writing material for their third album. Eight new songs were later on chosen to become "Embrace The Awakening", a Bay Area Thrash Metal monster made in Sweden! ”We wanted the new album to sound a bit more straight forward without stepping away too much from „Summon Thy Demons“," Uffe adds. "We feel that we’ve achieved that and at the same time kept our roots intact.”
