Style: powerful grim mesmerizing black metal

deeply rooted in uncompromising and ferocious tradition, utterly cold and raw sounding second longplay [2002] by cult Norsk black metal horde is an impressive monument to the true intense Scandinavian sound from the nineties, teleported into a new millennium, with peculiarly pure, grim and hateful atmosphere, every now and then pierced by penetrating, sweeping harmonious riffing - it is quite impossible to miss these seven fundamental cuts for any other entity indeed, crowned by haunting raspy vocal tone of Hoest; this notorious gem is an essential achievement of the blackest underground that continues from where the debut has left off, hailing the historical roots of the genre, yet building its own legacy for the years to come nonetheless; recent British black vinyl edition comes with a pro-printed lyric inner sleeve
