Formed in Sweden in 1990, UNCANNY released two demos (1991's Transportation to theUncanny and 1992's Nyktalgia), a split release in 1993 with ANCIENT RITES and one full-length in 1994 titled Splenium For Nyktophobia. For the first time ever, all one and a half hours of classic-era Swedish death metal will be released together on one double-disc package by Dark Descent Records.
Like the limited run 3LP Uncanny box set released by The Crypt in 2010, this 2CD will be titled MCMXCI - MCMXCIV and feature original artwork from Splenium For Nyktophobia as well as artwork from the demo era.
MCMXCI - MCMXCIV is currently available through Dark Descent Records. For more details or to order this double-disc package, visit this location.
MCMXCI - MCMXCIV is as near a perfect document of Sweden's legendarily fertile death metal scene as you're going to get in 2011; an unfuckwithable memorium to one of the country's best bands who never 'made it' to levels of their peers, the mighty Uncanny... Consider this a must-purchase release if your tastes even BEGIN to bend towards the dead heavy, dead evil DEATH METAL. Rating: A (rrrrrrrrrgh) +
