MACE 'N' CHAIN - Among Ancient Pillars (Ltd 100 / 180gr Gold) LP

180gr gold vinyl, limited to 100 copies.

Mace 'n' Chain was formed in Sweden at the end of 2020 by David Nilsson to pay homage to the genre that originally got him into metal in the first place: true, sword-wielding, heavy, goddamned, metal!

The debut album "Among Ancient Pillars" is highly recommended for fans of Eternal Champion, Wrathblade, Manilla Road, Cirith Ungol, Brocas Helm, Ironsword, and Manowar.

It is raw, epic and thunderous, faithful to epic heavy metal legends, old and new, yet it has the original touch of composer and multi-instrumentalist, David Nilsson.

Lyrically, "Among Ancient Pillars" is inspired by a variety of sources including myth and fantasy, literature and the works of J.R.R. Tolkien, Robert Jordan, Robert E. Howard.
