The American band Summon should not be
mistaken for the Austrian one named Summoning. They are both playing black
metal of one kind or another but Summon are much more raw and primitive. This
is not necessarily a bad thing as most of you probably know and there are
still a great number of interesting metal riffs to be found on this new album
from them. The highlight of it is by far the great "Black Winds Abyss", a
crushing masterpiece that should please most fans of black or death metal. I
mentioned a few lines above that Summon is a black metal band but this is not
entirely true because their music are also very close to death metal. These
guys are friends with their instruments and well capable of creating good
extreme music. However I am not very impressed by the vocals and the
production is not the best possible. I don't know if it was a deliberate
choice but it doesn't sound very good at times. A better production would
bring Summon a step closer to the throne of darkness because there are a fair
amount of potential to be found on this album although it is a little short -
only half an hour of music over ten
tracks.
