REVIEW: NECROPLASMA - BLACK FUNERAL HORNS

 


NECROPLASMA - BLACK FUNERAL HORNS DEMO II (Ketzer Distro, 2001)


Tracks: 1- Intro, 2- Goat Sodomy Eternal, 3- Slaughter of the Light, 4- Awakening from Beyond, 5- Black Funeral Horns, 6- Witching Hour (Venom Cover), 7- In Bitterness and Depression, 8- Outro


ultra fast and raw black metal. Even if Necroplasma is a band from Sweden, the music here is pure black metal in the Norwegian way. One thing that surprised me here is that the bass is clearly mixed...you can hear it in the fastest parts without having to listen very carefully and in some of the tracks it plays some interesting arrangements while still following the guitars. Bands like Mayhem or Dark Throne or even old Bathory came into my mind while listening to this recording....The vocals in this recording are in the vein of the darkest bands in the black metal scene. This CD includes a cover of Venom´s classic "Witching Hour" in a really good version. Favorite tracks: "Black Funeral Horns" and "In Bitterness and Depression" and "Witching Hour".
