Illwill

Illwill was a band/project featuring several people with past or present ties to King Diamond or Mercyful Fate. Evilution is a heavier album than one might think, combining aggressive Euro technical thrash with Pantera-ish crunchiness and drum patterns. The vocals are quite good, often resembling Rob Halford, at other times more shouted (90's style) and still other times more melodic, though definitely European in style. Though this sounds little like MF/KD, it's an entertaining listen and a worthwhile album. This appears to be a one-off project with no plans for future activity.
