Satyricon - now Diabolical

Cover: 7 inverted crosses out of 10

Its evil as hell, its supposed to be satan i think, and they have done a really good job on this, reminds me of Venom covers. not too much unnessesary shit,
and it gives a good impression of what to expect.
you can easily say this ain't the album
your granny is picking up.

Songs: 7 Blackmetal musicians in jail out of 10

The songs on this album is fucking amazing, i thought the last album was the best Blackmetal album ever released, its not as un-produced as norse blackmetal should be (according to the fans?) but this seems like agood 'ol fasioned thrash album, with a blackmetal theme.The title song sounds like something Slayer could have put out, and K.I.N.G, has the old BM feeling, but still updated. Allthough some of those songs has this symphonic thing, it doesnt suck as much as Cradle o Filth, or simmilar bullshit artists

Comments:

Even though black metal, is the easiest genre today to make fun of, theres nothing funny about this album.
Its dark, brutal, and it sort of makes you wanna torch a church while listening to it.
in other words, theres nothing that keeps you from buying this album.
