Ambush | Evil In All Dimensions | Napalm Records


Release Date: September 5th, 2025
Format: CD/Vinyl
Genre: Heavy Metal
Country: Sweden

Ambush has been carrying the torch for traditional heavy metal since 2013, rising fast in the Swedish scene through relentless touring and a fiery devotion to classic steel. Their style draws clear influence from Judas Priest, Iron Maiden and Accept, with melodic guitar lines and soaring vocals that helped them earn loyal crowds across Europe. After years of building momentum, “Evil In All Dimensions” arrives as their Napalm Records debut, a moment that naturally brings higher expectations.

The album hits with straightforward heavy metal energy, powered by bright twin guitars, steady rhythmic drive and vocals that shoot straight into the stratosphere. Ambush keeps things punchy and immediate, letting the riffs do the talking. Songs like “Evil In All Dimensions” and “Bending The Steel” go for speed and impact, pushed along by a lively rhythm section that stays locked in from start to finish. There is also space for atmosphere and tension when the band wants it, especially in “The Night I Took Your Life” where the darker tone works in the album’s favor.


“I Fear The Blood” steps into more emotional territory, offering a dramatic moment that breaks the pace without drifting into anything overly sentimental. It shows Ambush in a more expressive mode, carried by strong vocal delivery and steady instrumental support. The remaining tracks bring a mix of high velocity metal and mid tempo heaviness, always staying within the band’s familiar terrain. The production keeps everything clear and front loaded, allowing the riffs and vocals to stand tall.

“Evil In All Dimensions” doesn’t try to complicate its mission. Ambush delivers a heavy metal album built for denim jackets, loud speakers and raised fists. It’s energetic, catchy and delivered with the enthusiasm of a band in its prime. Fans of old school European steel will easily fall into its world, and newcomers to the band will get a strong introduction to what Ambush is all about.

Score: 8.0
