CARPATHIAN FOREST

Release Year: 2011
Artist Origin: NOR
Style: grim ferocious misanthropic black metal

devastating third full-length by Nattefrost and his sick pervert cohorts sounds yet uglier and more powerful within trademarked Norwegian black metal context, pushing the dirty rock'n'roll spirit upfront while bluntly perverting its already rebellious, nasty and twisted idea - twelve ill-natured cuts knock the listener down by hellish vibe and harsh sound, as well as black mortuary humour and weird grisly mood, while gruesome chaotic booklet design is also quite impressive with raw provoking visuals, pushing this macabre recording to the culmination point in the band's career; recent British black vinyl edition comes with a pro-printed inner sleeve and Mayhem Ghoul cover
