The
Austrian Belphegor is one of the most successful extreme black metal bands of
Europe and now they have parted ways with their old label Last Episode to
release their 10 year anniversary album through their own newly founded label
Phallelujah Productions. This album contains eight live tracks performed with
a ferocious intensity that makes their studio recordings seem a little pale in
comparison. There are also two newly recorded tracks called "Swarm Of Rats"
and "Der Untergang Pt. II" + two tracks from their two demos from 1991 and
1992. Also included is two video clips that should definitely be of interest
to fans of the band. Belphegor has never been one of my favorite bands but the
live tracks on this album really made me like them more. If there still is an
underground black metal scene than Belphegor is without a doubt one of the
leading bands of it. Austria has always been a strong black metal country and
I just hope that there will be more good bands coming forth now that the old
ones are beginning to get..., well, old... This is raw, fast, energetic and
brutal black metal at a very high level. Sometimes they even remind you of
what Cradle Of Filth used to sound like six or seven years
ago.
