Swedish grindcore veterans GADGET are finally back, ready to make their mark once again with the highly anticipated new EP "Coerced". This mini-album marks a fresh chapter for the band, being the first proper release since 2016 and the debut with the revitalized lineup featuring Emilia Henriksson on vocals and Kristofer Jankarls on guitar. "Coerced" comprises seven tracks written between 2019 and 2023, alongside a re-recording of the 2017 track "Funerary Rites". The new material preserves the abrasive intensity that longtime fans expect, while also introducing subtle twists and turns that keep the sound fresh and unpredictable. With "Coerced", GADGET prove that they are not just returning—they are evolving. The EP captures the raw energy, sharp dynamics, and small experimental touches that have always defined the band’s approach, making it a definitive statement of their ongoing relevance in the grindcore scene. This release is a bold reminder that GADGET remain masters of their craft, combining sheer brutality with inventive songwriting, and they are now poised to reignite their live performances and push forward with renewed determination.
