Paganizer is a relentless force in the death metal scene, hailing from Gamleby, Sweden, and formed in 1998 by the prolific Roger "Rogga" Johansson. Known for their unyielding commitment to the genre's brutal and gruesome themes, Paganizer has carved out a significant niche within the death metal community. Their music is characterized by a raw and aggressive sound, delivering crushing riffs, guttural vocals, and a rhythm section that relentlessly drives the music forward. Thematically, they often delve into horror and gore, mirrored by their dark and often macabre album artwork.

Over the years, Paganizer has released a staggering number of albums and EPs that have solidified their status as mainstays in the global death metal circuit. Their most recent releases such as "The Flesh Dwellers," "Beyond the Macabre," and "Down the Path of Decay" continue to showcase their mastery of the genre and their ability to keep their sound fresh while remaining true to their roots. Celebrating over two decades of existence with the compilation "20 Years in a Terminal Grip," Paganizer demonstrates both longevity and a relentless dedication to their craft, establishing a legacy that fans of extreme metal revere and respect. Despite numerous lineup changes, the band, led by Johansson's consistent vision, maintains a prolific output and a reputation for delivering uncompromising death metal with an old school edge.
