How was this? Cover art is perfect. :lol:

And good to see you spinning Goat Horns again. Rereading the lyrics from Taste of Victory soured me on the band quite a bit recently (just call me a garden variety SJW!!) but Goat Horns was something special. I'll never forget the first time I heard the intro to 'Unholy Oranthania' back on theendrecords back in 2001, totally altered my perception of what black metal could be.

Certainly got tired of Amon Amarth during their most recent albums, but I just spun their debut full-length for the first time in probably 5 years, and was stunned by how fresh it sounded. That early Abyss studios sound actually works here, and I loved the blend of equal parts melodic death/standard swedish death/thrash guitarwork.

See you found the review, but yes, very good.

And yeah, still pretty disdainful of NM's views, but they do seem to have renounced them to some degree. And I wouldn't rate GH as highly as you, seemed a bit dated, but did enjoy it more than I remembered.

I'd expect my opinion will be similar to yours. Listening the newest Drudkh EP now, which is just Drudkh being Drudkh, a very good thing.

Wouldn't have pegged Insomnium as the 'one long song' types but this isn't bad at all.

Phil Anselmo plus guys from Pig Destroyer, Cattle Decap, and others, making pretty decent groovy black metal.

Now:

Drudkh's last split partner's sole full-length. Pretty good.
