Black metal selection .5

Three great bands from the North.

SVARTAHRID - Malicious Pride - 2008
www.myspace.com/svartahrid


Download

Formed in Norway in 1994.
This one it their fourth album.
Raw classic Norwegian Black Metal.
Much recommended.

"The album takes you through the cold and desolate environment in ten steps, beginning with the uptempo "Sons Of Mine". Istar's raw vocals welcome you and make you feel at home, in this cold environment. The music is typical Black Metal, with lots of ferocious outbursts in a setting that certainly doesn't remind you of a warm summer's day on the grass. Take a look at the cover and you know that it's up north you need to seek."

NAGLFAR - Harvest - 2007
www.myspace.com/naglfar


Download

Formed in Sweden in 1992.
This is their fifth and last album to-date.
Straight in the vein of bands like Dissection.
Highly recommended!

"While stylistically the music of Naglfar has some similarities to bands like Immortal and Emperor, there's an underlying element of thrash, as well as death metal, below the scorching black metal frenzy that the band spews forth. This music drips with savagery and hatred, especially on songs like Odium Generis Humanis and Breathe Through Me, where Olivius' screams and screeching reaches danger zone levels, and the guitar riffs and drum blasts are off the charts. While there are occasional synth and piano touches, the melodic parts of more often created by the guitar work of Marcus Norman and Andreas Nilsson, both who do a superb job throughout this album."

DISSECTION - Reinkaos - 2006
www.myspace.com/dissection


Download

"Anti-Cosmic Metal of Death"

Legendary band formed in Sweden in 1989.
They broke-up in 1997 due to guitarist and singer Jon Nödtveit being convicted of helping the murder of an homosexual.
Jon reformed the band in 2004 after getting back from jail.


This one is their last album.

Short after its release Jon declares the end of the band and commits suicide, considering he could never do anything better than Reinkaos.

A great classic!

"Satanic or Godly, evil or divine, you can't deny the power and intensity of Dissection's Reinkaos".
