Swelling Repulsion have crafted their own style of death metal imbibing elements of various styles within the genre and giving it a refreshing expression. It's technical, progressive, even psychedelic and dissonant in parts and the way they've put it together is not only remarkably coherent, but also extremely catchy. This is busy, indulgent death metal music that is fun to listen to for a change and isn't as self-absorbed to come off as sounding too mechanical, premeditated or detached. There's an intuitive flow to the songs which do enough to maintain interest while always sustaining that undercurrent of groove that keeps things upbeat and enjoyable. It's an album the listener would want to willingly bury himself in and slowly unspool the intricate layers of riffing that have him cocooned in. 'Fatally Misguided' is a sprightly, delectable release with a quality of its own and it's one that compels the listener to revisit over and over without causing fatigue. This is one of those quirky hidden gems from the death metal underground that side-steps all trends and waves and simply oozes raw appeal.
For fans of - Afflicted, early Adramelech, Defect Designer, Ænigmatum, Disharmonic Orchestra, StarGazer, Atvm

Defect Designer are changing the paradigm of death metal with their refreshing, progressive take on the style. It's unpredictable, and loads of fun and you'll find no other band sounding like them. Swelling Repulsion
Swedish progressive death metal band Februus are bending the rules and creating innovative music that's both shocking and fascinating. They're a hidden gem where this kind of death metal music goes. Swelling Repulsion
Diskord are death metal legends and they still surprise you with their innovative, complex music. Paired with proggy label mates Atvm, it's easily one of the best split releases in the entire style! Swelling Repulsion
