Ænimus (SWE) is a heavy-metal band from Skellefteå (Sweden) with thrash influences. Ænimus (SWE) has released a demo, an EP and two full-length albums (This Illusion from 2014 and The Final Warning from 2018).

Unlike their more Traditional Metal oriented countrymen such as Steelwing, Enforcer, Katana, etc., Ænimus fuses the traditional ways of 80's Heavy Metal with Thrash elements with some pinches of Power (well, Anders Sevdin's vocals sound more of the Power Metal direction at times) and the later edges of Speed Metal. "This Illusion" is a well mix of modern and classic Metal, which has also been done by USA's Holy Grail and UK's Dendera. There are no bad songs whatsoever, yet I can't really deem this creation as perfect.
