Svartrit - I - III

Not very often does a band release three albums in a year, let alone all at the same time.
I'd never heard of this band before untill my recent discovery, and I wasn't expecting too much from the generic covers and unoriginal B&W woodland photography, but pleasantly, I was surprised.
You could find yourself comparing this band to early/mid era Abigor during moments, Svartrit do manage to carry that mid-90's feeling among certain songs, which makes it easy to listen to and doesn't give you much room to pick at this band, unless you're looking for something totally original and fresh, which this isn't.
Dark Germanic Heathenism/Anti-Cosmic is apparently the lyrical theme, not that you'd be able to tell at all.
Closing this up I have enjoyed the minutes spent listening to all three releases and I'd suggest you do the same.
(Note - the second album failed to upload, so the first and third will be posted and the second shall follow, if you enjoy both post a comment and I'll try and get the second album posted quickly.)

Malign

Before Ofermod, before Orthodox BM and its modern movement, we had Malign.
Similar in sound at times but here we one of the founding hordes in the Orthodox Black Metal circle.

What Do You Think of The Old God, We Call Him Judas?

So now you've tasted Reverorum ib Malacht, I shall unleash the first demo.

This demo is simply incredible, you will be very hard pressed to find something as dark and as powerful sounding as this, nor I'm sure will you be able to find another release that captures such evil ambience and a smothering atmosphere.  This is perfection, I can only compare it to other releases by taking the best parts of say....Hell i'm not quite sure, it's such a fog on the mind listening to this that it makes everything stand still because you just can't focus and once it has played out, you'll be hard pressed to get it out of your head.

The production is wonderful(terrible)...apparently they wanted to use the worst recording equipment possible, which just happen to result in genius.

What you hear is the sounds of dark rituals vibrating malevolently through stone walls finally reaching your ears as your body lays helpless and frozen with fear underground Reverorum ib Malacht's temple of black sorcery.

This is the soundtrack to the Dungeons of Angband.
