Heaven Shall Burn - Antigone CD

Antigone is a landmark Metalcore album, showcasing Heaven Shall Burn at their most furious, political and uncompromising. A genre-defining release that blends crushing heaviness with melodic death metal precision and hardcore conviction.

Heaven Shall Burn - Antigone CD

With Antigone, German metalcore institution Heaven Shall Burn delivered one of the most influential extreme metal albums of the 2000s. Originally released in 2004, the record marked a massive step forward in intensity, songwriting and ideological focus, cementing the band’s reputation far beyond the European underground.

Musically, Antigone fuses relentless metalcore aggression with sharp melodic death metal riffing inspired by the Gothenburg sound, while retaining the raw urgency of hardcore punk. Blistering speed, devastating breakdowns and anthemic lead melodies collide with razor-sharp precision, resulting in a record that is both brutal and memorable.

Lyrically, Antigone is fiercely political and socially conscious, addressing themes such as fascism, oppression, animal rights, war and social injustice. The album’s title references the Greek tragedy by Sophocles, underlining the band’s long-standing engagement with philosophical and ethical questions.

Produced by Tue Madsen (The Haunted, Dark Tranquillity), Antigone remains a milestone release that helped shape the sound and attitude of modern metalcore and melodic extreme metal worldwide.
