Deathwitch is a band that features
prominent veterans from the extreme metal scene of Gothenburg and this is
actually their fifth album so far. They have now left their old label
Necropolis Records in favor of Hellspawn, owned by the former Dark Funeral
member and founder David Parland. This album has all that you would expect
from a band like this - silly satanic lyrics, devilish guitar riffs and growls
from the abyss. Inspired by classic bands like Bathory, old Tiamat, Sodom and
Sarcofago they have found their own style which is a primitive, brutal form of
thrash metal with strong black metal influences (do you know of a band called
Dark Funeral...?). This is primal, down to the basics extreme metal that
should be candy for fans of the old school. Deathwitch are determined to keep
the spirit of the ancient ones alive and they are doing a fine job so far.
This album does by no means come off as original or groundbreaking but it is
well executed, fully enjoyable and professionally produced extreme metal from
the musical goldmine that is Sweden today. You have to look past the lousy (=
creepy) intro / outro and lyrics though and look upon the latter with a sense
of preadolescent humour in mind. Stand-out tracks: "Deathfuck Rituals",
"Evil Fertilizer".
