Morning Star is the seventh studio album by Swedish metal band Entombed, released on 3 September 2001. The album is more experimental than previous efforts, and shows the band returning to a more traditional death metal sound overall, though without abandoning elements of death 'n' roll. It also introduces a handful of straightforward, fast-paced death/ thrash tracks, a first for the band at the time.
The lyrics for the song "I for an Eye" were written by Orvar Säfström who was also stand-in vocalist for the band in 1991 on the EP Crawl. [4]
The song "When It Hits Home" is influenced by the 1997 film The Devil's Advocate.
The lyrics to "Chief Rebel Angel" are in several cases based on quotes from The Devil's Advocate film:
The album received a stellar review from AllMusic, ending with the recommendation: "Any fan of quality underground metal should find this to be a superb effort from an underrated band."
All tracks are written by Uffe Cederlund, except where noted
