Release Year: 2022
Artist Origin: SWE
Style: grim expressive devastating black metal

acknowledged Swedish black metal tyrants are determined to continue their authoritative, unstoppable campaign against all that is meek, holy and deceptive with unswerving, trademark commitment to blasphemy and extremity: ten razor-sharp cuts [2009] travel along the same lines as two previous recordings, balancing between relentlessly fast and creepingly slow passages, still finding the legendary four-piece evolve and offer brilliant new shades of infernal darkness and evil, where vocal delivery of Mortuus sounds as never convincing, profound and infectious, revealing genuinely poignant critique of essential christian dogmas; recent French gatefold sleeve white 180g vinyl edition with a pro-printed full size sixteen page booklet and unreleased Shadow Comes bonus is limited to 299 units
