1349


Spaceman Dave's Favourite Albums of 2010: #25

Track: Atomic Chapel
Artist: 1349
Album: Demonoir
Genre: 3rd wave Black Metal
Similar Artists: Mayhem, Satyricon, Marduk


I have always been partial to 1349. Frost's (Satyricon, Gorgoroth, Zyklon-B, etc.) and Archaon's riffs go together beautifully, and seeing them perform earlier this year with Triptykon really took the cake. The tracks on this album are separated by ambient intros of sorts--to the horror of trve kvlt black metal fans. I, however, like the effect.

Don't expect a repeat of their previous album, or of their earlier work. This is a different beast.
