DARKTHRONE "Under A Funeral Moon" [12" LP, Gatefold]
Death (early), Black (mid), Punk/Black/Heavy Metal (later) from Norway
Detailed Description
The album is a bleak reflection of contemporary times, featuring harsh guitar riffage and hateful vocals all underpinned by Fenriz's rightly celebrated tight and complex drum patterns.
Continuing with its highly impressive series of black and white covers, the band further nurtures its lo-fi approach with a sound that is powerfully focused and entirely unconcerned with modern-day aesthetics.
Under A Funeral Moon is the album that many Darkthrone fans hail as the ultimate manifesto for Black Metal.
