The Red in the Sky Is Ours is the debut album by the Swedish death metal band At the Gates released on 27 July 1992.
When At the Gates began recording The Red in the Sky Is Ours, the group had been together for a mere year.
[1] In comparison to 1991 EP Gardens of Grief, guitarist Anders Björler feels that The Red in the Sky Is Ours is more structured.
Björler was at the time very inspired by guitarist Alf Svensson's ideas, and called them "over the top" and "extremely challenging".
However, Björler went on to comment that the group "tried too hard to impress people with too many riffs and weird songwriting".
