| blackdeath - katharsis: kalte lieder aus der hölle - lp
vinyl edition of the latest full length from russia's unique and enigmatic blackdeath. includes alternate cover art and bonus track of the band covering summoning's der flug der nazgul. edition of 500 copies.we are proud to announce the new album of this long running russian black metal legend. violent, angular, and twisting original black metal with disturbing clear voices from the 666 dimension.
further words from marco of seed stock records regarding the new blackdeath:
hot blood in the frozen wastes, tormented sleeps, no rest, no peace - always some war to be fought. black death keep fighting, living life as war.
on this new album, all of the wildness and violence that black death have been renowned for have now hardened into an idiosyncratic and cracked style: manic vocals that switch between black rasp and psychotic singing, nordic style riffs that are somehow bent into a weapon with sharper angles, and a song progression that is equal parts percussive brawl and wide-eyed revelation.
after 6 albums you'd think that they would have plateaued, or grown tired, but no. rather, here, you find them in the strongest form since the band's inception back in 1998. they now have finally secured themselves a real drummer, and full-professional studio sound. for some underground black metal bands, that might equal an awkward combination, but black death have always been stubbornly focused on quality of riff and refined composition of song which translates perfectly in this level of production.
"black death means black metal" and effectively it is presented here on katharsis without the trappings of politic or theologian rhetoric, and it's given in its most potent and straightforward dosage. |
