REVIEW: Salacious Gods - Sunnevot Cold Blood Industries, 2001
7.5/10
Salacious Gods - Sunnevot - cover art It is a very rare event when a new black metal band manages to impress me but the Dutch Salacious Gods have hereby accomplished the (evidently almost) impossible task of doing so. Their second album "Sunnevot" contains everything needed in order to make a black metal creation complete: great christcrushing music, unearthly vocals that doesn't annoy you and an evil atmosphere. This is perhaps not a groundbreaking release but if you like this kind of music you will not be disappointed with this album. Just check out the sheer intensity and insane speed riffing on "Twaeduster Night" and enjoy. Salacious Gods made their debut album "Askengris" unique with the use of an old Dutch dialect for their lyrics but they have hereby proven once and for all that they are capable of so much more than writing lyrics that noone will understand. The new album has also been honoured with two guest appearances from Jens of God Dethroned and Marco from The Wounded. Salacious Gods is a great band at their best moments and reminds me slightly of older Old Man's Child but they do tend to fall into the monotony trap a little too often to be playing in the same league. I am pretty confident though that this band will continue to grow and develop in the future. The monumental artwork was created by Jarek Msniewski (Vader, Raebelliun etc.).
