Samoth is a man with a lot of things going on. Except for his
main band Emperor and his label Nocturnal Art we now see the result of the
side project Zyklon. Together with Trym, also of Emperor, and members of
Myrkskog and Limbonic art he has composed 8 tracks dedicated to death and
destruction. This is nothing like the side project Peccatum of Ihsahn which
was a mix of gloomy gothic and black metal. It is more of a very intense and
extremely fast death metal album with a black metal tinge. There are also some
occational spoken words from the American fetish queen Persephone as well as a
brief vocal appearance from Trickster G of Ulver. The very few atmospheric
pieces of the album are nothing to be happy about and there are absolutely no
beautiful melodies to be found here either. What is appealing with this album
is instead the immense power and wall-crushing intensity of every single song.
Unfortunately it gets a bit monotonous and there is no track that clearly
stands out from the rest of them although there are some nice harsh riffing
here and there. It might be interesting to know that the lyrics were written
by the still imprisoned Bård "Faust"
Eithun.
