Darkthrone - Pre-Historic Metal

 

Genre: Heavy/Doom/Black
Country: Norway
Year: 2026

1. They Found One Of My Graves
2. Pre-Historic Metal
3. Siberian Thaw
4. Deeply Rooted
5. The Dry Wells Of Hell
6. So I Marched To The Sunken Empire
7. Eat Eat Eat Your Pride
8. Eon 4

22nd album by Darkthrone. Faithful to the duo’s “monumentally primitive” approach to metal, the album keeps the dirty, earthy production style that listeners have come to expect. The record sounds harsh, raw as fuck, filthy and very much “palaiolithic”, with clear traces of 1980s heavy metal and doom-heavy riffing.

Crypt Sermon - Saturnian Appendices 'Ep

 

Genre: Epic/Doom
Country: U.S.A.
Year: 2025

1. Only Ash And Dust
2. A Fool To Believe
3. Lachrymose
4. De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas (Mayhem cover)

4-track 'Ep by Crypt Sermon. The riffs are solid and the songwriting is interesting, carrying the songs through a lot of twists and turns that keep things interesting. The most interesting track here is actually the last one, which is a cover of Mayhem's 'De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas'. The band wrings Euronymous's twisted riffs into doom-styled dirges, and the song is almost unrecognizable.

7. Apokatastasis Panton
8. Agony In Blood
9. Frozen Tomb

6th album by Crust. Crust's brand of black metal incorporates elements of doom and post, and whips them into a product that that traps your soul in the abyss. The snarling vocals and seething tremolo guitars, the grimy, sludgy grooves and oppressively doomy chord progressions are all still present and correct, but there are definitely signs that the group have evolved somewhat since the last time we heard from them.
