Surrender Of Divinity is a black metal band from Thailand,
formed in early 1996. After recording a demo tape and going on a mini-tour
through Malaysia and Singapore they signed a two album deal with the Malaysian
label Psychic Scream and here we have the first result from this evil
covenant. Their style of playing is very much influenced by Norwegian and
Swedish black metal bands like Darkthrone, Mayhem, Marduk and Immortal with
both slower, more melodic sections as well as more raw and fast ones. One
thing for sure is that they do their work very well and they are actually even
more intense and interesting than several of their Nordic colleagues. The
guitarwork is really great but I think the drumming needs to be improved and
enhanced a lot more. It feels like the drums have been left in the background
and it sounds a bit weird. Lyrically this is a violent satanic assault against
Christianity and all it represents as you might imagine. The extreme metal
scene in South East Asia is still rather young and it will probably leave the
most extreme parts behind in perhaps five years time from now. Raw and brutal
black metal is not really my favorite genre these days since it easily gets
tiresome but Surrender Of Divinity have (de)created a nice dynamic piece that
will hopefully please their Scandinavian
heroes.
