And So It Begins album reviews
"Ambitious and reassuringly heavy, this hard working band's continued improvement could launch them to the heights. Hopefully this is just the start."
"A massively promising & accomplised debut" 7/10
"As far as debuts go this scorches like the midday sun during a supernova. It is just fucking marvellous! Exellent melodies that shred away with an utter savagery that was once thought dead by the early 90s. Sworn Amongst have concocted an album with so many razor sharp riffs that it almost feels like your head will explode trying to pay attention to each one. This is a thing of beauty, fury and speed. Very possibly a highlight of 2008" 9/10
"One of the most epic sounding bands for quite some time. Technical guitars, frantic drumming and commanding vocals. Combining everything the band has learnt from their heroes, clearly Sworn Amongst have a lot to offer. The band are touring extensively this year, so you really should catch them when they come to your town and unleash the power of their riffs!" 9/10
"This is pure, unadulterated thrash. Songs like The Rules Of Engagement are songs that you can and will bang your head to. If you thought the be all and end all of thrash metal was the last Trivium CD then the likes of Unleash The Power will hit you like a steamtrain. This isn’t clichéd "modern thrash", this is thrash that shows proper respect to the bands who made the genre of music the force it was. There is nothing to do when you listen to And So It Begins but bang your fucking head till your ears bleed." 8/10
"This is metal, by metal fans for metal fans. No frills, no pretence, just some serious neck snapping fun. With a nod to their heroes at every turn, Sworn Amongst are here to pay respect to the past without actually repeating it, and that, dear friends, is what’s going to take them places." 4/5
"This is not light and breezy. It really has teeth. Heavy right from the opening with a precise technical approach and soaring melodies. You feel engaged right from the start with hooks and melodies that make it all very memorable. This is a really mature sounding album. Well formed, and solid." 12/13
"This album hits home one particular fact – these guys play like seasoned pros. Skilled craftsmen of their art, there's skip-loads of potential here."
"Fresh-faced thrash, with singalong choruses that are catchier than bubonic herpes, Sworn Amongst's debut full length is every bit the steely-eyed statement of intent that it's name suggests."
ORGAN
"Self-assured power metal with a stomping thrash edge that they sound like they’ve been doing for ages! This sounds like the fourth album from some big name 90’s metal band rather than a opening declaration in intent. And so it really begins with some seriously bruising metal for those who like their metal on the Pantera, Exodus, Testament side of life!"

After five years of solid graft, their brutal combination of grooving melodic thrash metal has seen them gain a place in the roster of successful up & coming British record label Rising Records.
The band spent the latter half of 2007 writing new material, before six weeks at Rising studios saw the birth of their debut album 'And So It Begins'.
The album will be released on March 24th 2008, which also signals a hefty stint of touring, as the band begins to look forward and put all their efforts into making an impact on the global metal scene.
