UMUR
"...And Here I Die...Satisfied" is an EP release by Swedish death metal act Grave, bridging the gap between the band´s second and third full-length studio albums "You'll Never See (1992)" and "Soulless (1994)". The EP was released through Century Media Records in February 1993.

The music on the 6 track, 22:58 minutes long EP is old school Swedish death metal to the bone. "...And Here I Die...Satisfied" is a bit more dynamic and varied than the first two albums by Grave, but that makes sense since the material was recorded during two different sessions, and "Black Dawn" is a cover of the title track from the 1987 demo of their pre-Grave band Corpse. Tracks 1-3 were recorded in July 1992 (only a month after the recording of the material which ended up becoming "You'll Never See") and tracks 4-6 were recorded in October 1990 and are culled directly from the "Promo 91" demo release.

The sound productions on the two sessions are a bit different from each other, which makes for a slightly inconsistent listen, and none of the sound productions are particularly great. Raw, gritty, and brutal, but the material from the July 1992 session lacks the abrasive brutal sound of "You'll Never See", while the material which was recorded in October 1990 is almost too polished for the brutal and gritty aestethics of Grave´s music.

I´d say the title tracks and the Corpse cover are the highlights of "...And Here I Die...Satisfied". "I Need You" which is the last track from the July 1992 recording session is not a particularly interesting track (it was re-recorded and included on "Soulless" in a better version), and the demo material from the "Promo 91" demo release is decent, but not in any way as interesting as the studio versions of the same songs which would appear on Grave´s 1991 debut full-length studio album "Into the Grave" (Century Media Records, August 1991). "Tremendous Pain" excluded as it did not appear on "Into the Grave", but the point remains the same. "...And Here I Die...Satisfied" is a nice little stop gap release between two full-length studio albums, but it´s not a mandatory listen for the fans and definitely not for the casual death metal listener. A 3 star (60%) rating is warranted.
