SINCERA “Cursed And Proud”

SINCERA
“Cursed And Proud”
(Abyss)
I think I remember Fester. I know I bought that first Fester album simply because it was released on No Fashion Records, along with Marduk’s first album. Sincera is as far as I understand some sort of continuation of Fester. I had kind of expected a more retro oriented album but this turned out to be quite contemporary in its dark/black metal approach. I liked the first part of the album, the one that wasn’t live recordings. It struck me as some really cool metal. The live tracks on the other hand didn’t do it for me. Instead it made me think there was something wrong with my download. I would have liked four more tracks in the vein of the studio tracks. Old school but not retro dark/black metal. Anders Ekdahl
