Your Review:

Great album...Sometimes it remind me Sodom's "Obsessed By Cruelty" but in a catchy black metal vein. Simple as rehearsal but with a great quality.

Review by: galgar



This album often is compared to Burzum, or called a flat out ripoff. Not just this album, but the bands entire sound. Well, I can see why, depressive black metal, with somewhat similar vocals. Classic Burzum is better than this, but for Burzum styled black metal that isn't Burzum, this is about as good as it gets. The talking in Norwegian(which happens all the time) takes some getting used to. Fortunately, the voice isn't extremely effete and pathetic, such as Varg's during "dunkelheit". Track 4 doesn't amuse me, I think it ruins the mood of the album, its so stupid, I can't really describe it though.

yes, similar to burzum, but completely different atmosphere. my fav bm album, has a mdb turn loose the swans feel. takes me not to the same place, but the same area, not far apart.

Strange band. They sound like a softer Burzum. However they are less brutal and less schizofrenic then Vargish output. I heard that they changed the name of a band and they dont play BM anymore. That is why i called them strange. Guitars are simplistic. Vocals are screamed with echo. There are passages in spoken norwegian. Melody is based on bass lines. Battery is ok. Music is mid tempo. Production is weak but all instruments can be clearly heard. Highlight is Ansinktlose. There is one
funny song With swans... Hey I heard a lot. Its crappy even for BM accustic/romantic/whatever song. Never the less i like them. Download Ansinktlose. If you dont like it you wont like them.
