#FOR FANS OF: Black Metal |
Great album, the vocals sound a little bit like Galder via Old Man's Child now Dimmu Borgir. The production is a little bit raw but still the riffs are monumental. Especially for a first LP. I'm really liking this band from the get-go. I'm not too fond of black metal but there are some exceptions. This one definitely is I'm glad I was referred to this band. They are balls-out awesome. The music is what's my most memorable moments and the vocals mixed with them. The drums were mixed in good here, too. From start to finish I have no complaints. This album was release more than 15 years ago and I'm bringing it alive again.
To black metal lovers, they've probably been made aware of this band years ago, but only 2 feedbacks on it. Now this is a third. I look forward to more LP's in the future. They do have a 2018 release, but I haven't heard it yet. Been busy blasting away at the past. This is a great debut album and I'm sure most of their albums are to this caliber of total awesome music. The album is about 37 minutes in length but I enjoyed every moment of it! The raw sound is pretty killer making the whole atmosphere killer as well. I'll have to tune in to their more recent material, absolutely! The one blew my hair back though.
The production as I covered was raw but good. I felt that the tempos were up and down and the voice hardcore. Aside from the vocals sounding like Galder, the music is way their own. A lot of riffs tremolo picked and compositions that were worthwhile. I'm sure that they put a lot of effort into making this LP. This is their debut and their debut definitely hit home with me! It was intense to say the least. Some clean vocals especially on the last track but not that much fluctuating on the whole album. From start to finish (with minor altercations) the album is intense and brutal. But as I said the tempos variated.
If you've never heard this band and you're a metal fan, check this out! I'm going to have to check out their newer material, but this one really made a dent in my brain. The band is wholly original and kick ass black metal raw as all hell! It's a hard one to find on CD. But pretty much everything is digital now so you can find this on Spotify or I'm sure YouTube as well. The latter is where I got this one. Check it out because you won't have many debut LP's like this in the black metal category. It simply rips and is worth taking the time to listen to. I would say I only took off from some consistency in the riff-writing, but nevertheless monumental! (Death8699)
