That album, The Burning (1995), displayed the Crown as a fairly indistinct death-metal band, albeit one with great potential. This potential blossomed on the Crown’s second album, 1996’s Eternal Death, where old-school thrash came face to face with a lethal death-metal assault. After a successful tour with neighbors Sacrilege in 1998, Metal Blade offered the Crown a contract (despite an alleged assault on one of their employees by vocalist Johan Lindstrom). The fruit of that contract, 1998’s Hell is Here, was even stronger than its predecessor, and the Crown eventually played alongside Emperor, Morbid Angel, Impaled Nazarene, Limbionic Art, and Peccatum as a part of the European “No Mercy Tour, Pt. III.” In the spring of 2000, the band’s fourth album (and career high-point), Deathrace King, garnered overwhelmingly positive reviews, many of which dubbed it the album of the year.     The Crown Deathexplosion MP3 Metal Soul-searing and lightning-quick, “Deathexplosion” more than lives up to its title -- an explosive example of the Crown’s ripping death-thrash.
