This how real death metal from Scandinavia sounds like it is as dark so gets confuse with black metal also there was a death metal "movement" prior to the second wave of black metal in Norway, so no cannibal corpse zombie or thelema gimmicks here just pure death! Enjoy this gem!
Strange how Norway the land famous for it's black metal minimalism has released so progressive and technical death metal such as In pains and Soulside Journey
i love the new darkthrone shit. its fucking good. its like a step back to really fucking old school black metal. it has the old school punk feel and a lot of thrash which is how black metal started. i'd say its a win haha, though i'm also a thrasher at heart so i guess its perfect for me.
Well riff wise I think also early Death and Repulsion, but they did record this in Sweden so they got the same production and sound. Great album though!
yeah, i like how darkthrone will be black metal, deth metal, the there new shit is sorta like blackend punk thrash stuff. there new stuff reminds me of toxic holocaust. awsome band by the way
If a metal band can make a great song (classic at that) with nobody thinking: this needs vocals, then that is a truly great band. This song wasn't complex yet it was still amazing, HAIL DARKTHRONE! \m/
Apprently so - I've only ever seen footage from about two or three concerts, all from around the time of Blaze in the Northern Sky. It's probably because their bassist left, and they found it hard to get permanent (live) replacements.
wers ther new shit ??

@chaclapa This album in particular is death metal actually, and Darkthrone's only death metal album.

@chaclapa No, this is Death metal before Darkthrone started experimenting with and changing into Black Metal

they should have made the keyboard sounds low enough so that you have to search for them, that gives atmosphere the most.

almost every death metal has "dark" atmosphere this is pure death metal.

Even though this is death metal, the atmosphere is rather... cold, and dark... foreboding what was to come...

I like how it has a death metal sound, but has a black metal atmosphere that almost reminds me of Emperor.

Dismember, Entombed (to name a few)...type in Swedish Death Metal Bands online and u will find a shitload of awesome bands man.
godofmetal712 2 years ago
Dismember- Like An Everflowing Stream
Entombed- Left Hand Path/Clandestine
Grave- Into The Grave
Unleahed- Where No Life Dwells
Also check out the pre Entombed band Nihilist, and early Death, Repulsion, Death Breath etc if you havent heard them.

It's just pure Death Metal. And No, screaming vocals don't make music Black Metal. Sounds more to the Swedish Death metal way if anything.
