To create their latest opus, “Beautiful Death Machine”, Swollen Members regrouped with a revitalized energy and a vision to record an album that strengthens the group’s musical legacy. Armed with their signature brand of dark, sinister, spellbinding hip-hop, Swollen Members emerged with an album that is aggressive, confident and commands listeners attention with its in-your-face attitude. On “Beautiful Death Machine”, Madchild and Prevail have returned to the expressive, emotional, poetic and clever lyrical style that has earned them legions of fans, while Rob The Viking provides a dark backdrop of sick macabre beats.

In related news, Madchild is currently wrapping up his first headlining tour in support of his debut solo album “Dope Sick”, which debuted on the Canadian Billboard Charts at #3. Madchild has been performing sold-out shows across the country alongside Shadyville DJ Dow Jones and Vancouver hip-hop act Ghost.
