Heir Corpse One formed in 2020 when Rogga Johansson and Peter Svensson teamed up to play traditional Swedish death metal. They recruited Kjetil Lynghaug to play lead guitar and Marcus Rosenkvist to smash the drums. Their first release introduced a story about wealthy passengers crashing a private plane and starting a massive zombie outbreak. They expanded their horror universe with the "Caribbean Frights" and "Chopping Spree" short releases. Now the guys return with the full-length "Destination: Domination".

The story on "Destination: Domination" picks up the pieces from that initial plane crash. The undead rich folks are marching across the land to conquer humanity. They spread a rotting disease everywhere they walk. Farms and small towns turn into massive bloodbaths under the zombie assault. The living build massive machines to fight the hordes. Eventually, the corpses win the war and establish a massive zombie empire across the planet.

The guitars deliver the massive distortion you want in this style. Rogga barks out the vocals with total aggression. The riffs pummel everything in their path. Kjetil throws in ripping guitar solos over the chaotic drumming. Marcus keeps the speed fast and aggressive on tracks like "Undeath From Above" and "Motordead". The bass playing from Peter gives the whole assault a thick, crushing bottom end. You get pure chainsaw guitars ripping through flesh.

The music matches the zombie story perfectly. Songs like "Well Of Blood" and "The Last Supper" deliver relentless headbanging moments. Sometimes the tempo stays in one gear for a little too long. A few tempo changes would make the slaughter even more devastating. The album simply delivers raw death metal violence. The production keeps things loud and aggressive. Fans of the classic Stockholm sound will blast these songs at maximum volume.

Heir Corpse One bring serious aggression on "Destination: Domination". The zombie apocalypse theme works great with the buzzing guitars. They just plug in and shred through ten tracks of undead chaos. Grab a beer, turn up the speakers, and let the zombies take over.

Score: 7.0
