DENIED, the Swedish metal band featuring vocalist Johan Fahlberg (JADED HEART) and bassist Fredrik Isaksson (formerly of THERION and GRAVE) and guitarist Chris Vowden (formerly Opeth), have released a 3-song digital EP, entitled Judas Kiss, via Sliptrick Records.

Denied will release its third album, Let Them Burn, in early 2013 via Sliptrick Records. The CD was recorded with producer Fredrik Folkare (UNLEASHED) and was mastered at Dugout Productions by Rickard Sporrong.

Denied was formed in Upplands Väsby, Stockholm, Sweden in 2003 by Andreas Carlsson. Devoted to heavy-yet-melodic metal, he wanted to expand his vision beyond a simple dream. The band recorded its first album, Seven Times Your Sin, in 2005 and supported it with local gigs. The group's second album, New Army For The Old Revolution, saw the light of day in late 2008. In 2009, Denied enlisted longtime friend Fahlberg as their new vocalist and in November of that same year, guitarist Chris Vowden (formerly OPETH) joined the group.

Denied has "earned a reputation as a great live act from their performances in various rock clubs in the Stockholm area," according to a press release." Through the years, Denied has supported such acts as DREAM EVIL, SISTER SIN and ENTOMBED. Their ability to work the crowd and drive them into a frenzy has become a trademark for Denied."

Former members of Opeth and Therion? Fredrik Isaksson was the bassist in Therion for five minutes, and neither Wikipedia nor Encyclopaedia Metallum are aware of Chris Vowden's involvement with Opeth.
 
The guy who made me check this band out is Johan Fahlberg, the excellent Jaded Heart singer. Denied is heavier than JH, but these 3 songs are pretty good stuff IMO. I'm looking forward to hearing more stuff from this band.
