This is being labelled as Roman Catholic black metal. I have no idea what that means at all. To me this is as close to noise as you can get without it turning into noise. In there somewhere you can hear a band playing. But you gotta concentrate hard. In a way this reminds me of the first time I heard Mayhem’s demo “Pure Fucking Armageddon”. That demo gave me the same vibe as this does. In a way this do bring me back to the 80s and the more obscure bands of that era. I have no need to be “trve” but I guess that there are those that will hail this as the most trve black metal that there is. I say, let them be posers. I appreciate this for what it is. Pure black metal mayhem. Anders Ekdahl
