Metal Reviews

An exceptional work in heavy/thrash/speed/progress.

Shall be spending the afternoon and sometime into the evening with these two recordings. Ihsahn's both versions.

Between first three Satyricon, which one do you like the most? I think Shadowthrone is glorious. Nemesis Divina is outstanding but does not have the special charm of the sophomore. Thoughts?

Tough decision between Dark medieval times and the shadowthrone. I listen to both a lot.

Indeed, indeed. I think Nemesis Divina's orchestrations and arrangements are stellar. Shadowthrone explodes in your ears. The debut is great but Satyr in a short period of time became a first-rate composer of sorts. Dark Medieval Times is the beginning and can never be forgotten.

A high velocity event, both at a qualitative level, and a quantitive level.

Playlist for the late afternoon and into the night.
