Battlehorns is a French black metal band that formed in 1997,
inspired by the Norwegian sounds from the early 90's such as
Dødheimsgard, Satyricon, Manes, Thorns and Zyklon B. It is not
difficult to trace these influences in their music either when listening to
this debut album of theirs. Signed to their native label Hohenstaufen Records
they offer their first attack on modern black metal. Battlehorns want nothing
to do with the keyboard infected sounds of today. Instead they want to bring
back the old classic feeling that started it all. Raw, primal and, not to be
forgotten, intense black metal with a Darkthrone production is what these
French guys have to offer. They are not bad at what they do but the production
is a little bit of an earsoar at times. There are some golden moments here
though such as the killer track "Conquering Black Storm", a song that should
make all fans of underground black metal jump with joy (if you do that of
course...). There is nothing unique or groundbreaking about this release but
those of you who feel that there is not enough apocalyptic war metal in this
world might want to given them a
chance.
