Twisted Autumn
Darkness is a British black metal band that formed in Norfolk in 1999. This
self-financed mini album is their first official release and it contains six
songs of rather modern sounding black metal with keyboards and many tempo
changes but the old school feeling is still very apparent in the background
and vocals. Although there is nothing really unique about this release there
are two things in particular that I enjoy. First off we have the nice
Gregorian chanting that make up the intro track "Darkness Rising". This is a
very good beginning and it creates a suitable atmosphere for what is to come.
The second thing I like about this band is that they are not afraid of
experimenting with some rather unorthodox rhythm patterns and the
incorporation of riffs from both death and thrash metal into their musical
blend. The keyboards are mostly used very well but sometimes they are a little
unnecessary. Fans of Immortal, older Cradle Of Filth and death metal period
Therion would probably find this band interesting. They have not really done
something entirely unique and they still need to work on the song writing a
little but I think I like where they are going. The sound quality is of course
not perfect but rather good for a self-financed
recording.
