Norwegian “no brainer” black metal. Often well-executed in every place. Stripped down the “essentials”: loud thrashing riffs, tons of bombast, fierce vocals, forceful repetition, goats and…satan. These fiends know how to put the METAL in Black Metal. Think Darkthrone, old Saytricon & 1349. (((((1))))) Fast & lighting quick hellish Norsk BM. “Diis isz Sataneek Bleck Metahel!” ((((((2)))))) By horns of goat!-Is this fast & furious! Pure black/thrash madness. Nasty vocals. ((((((3))))) Punkish yet epic “blackened metal-crust” (!?) ‘ala recent Darkthrone. Sung in Norwegian. Kvlt! ((((4)))) Mid paced ‘death march’ with lots of nice Celtic Frost-ish vocal presence in the chorus. Drags a little too long though. (((5))) Aggressive but “not-quite there” black/thrash with clangy drumming. Nice Slayer-ish solo. Yes, the title is redundant but “satan’s got all the best bands”. ((((6)))) Starts off being fairly ‘typical’ Norse BM but it continues to build into a real monster. (Check it out 2:50 onward). ((((((7))))) Black thrashin’ mayhemic destruction! Best onomonpoetic vocal moment: “Woorrraarrgh!” (((((8)))) Tremelo riffing overkill but a nice & pissed off sound often venturing into even more of the “black thrash attack”. Best onomonpoetic moment: “Bleeechk!” ((((9)))) Another from the Darkthrone cookie cutter but what a grim, true and EVIL METAL cookie they bake! Fast, fast and faassst! ((((10)))) Slow, murky with some thick riffs, goes a little too long in places but otherwise it’s a ‘pleasing yet vile sound “Rrrryeeeeaaaha!” | ||
