HORIZON ABLAZE
“Dödsverk”
(Code666)
Norwegian black metal has left its mark on the metal world in a major way. And not only through church burnings and murders but also through some really great metal. But for every new Norwegian black (extreme) metal act that come along the variation gets narrower. We’ve seen great acts like Arcturus and In The Woods burst out of the Norwegian woodworks and stun us with their innovative approach to metal, thus setting the bar so high it almost seems unreachable for other bands to come. HORIZON ABLAZE has a sound that is a bit awkward. It is not your typically from A to B kind of sound but more along the line of bands like 3rd And The Mortal or Atrox. Kinda more off-beat than what usually comes along from Norway. I liked those kinds of bands and in keeping with that tradition I like this too. Anders Ekdahl
