Fan-filmed video footage of the Swedish death metal supergroup THE LURKING FEAR performing on October 14 at Kraken in Stockholm, Sweden can be seen below. THE LURKING FEAR releases its debut album, "Out Of The Voiceless Grave", on August 11 via Century Media. Recorded at Welfare Sounds in Gothenburg, Sweden, the disc was made available as special-edition digipak CD, gatefold LP on 180-gram vinyl with a poster and as a digital download.
