REVIEW: THROCULT - HUNTED

 


THROCULT - HUNTED (Independent, 2002)


Produced By: Dave Otero and Throcult


Tracks: 1- Kill or Be Killed, 2- Hunted, 3- Eclipse of the Blood Moon


Cover Art by Nick Jackson

Recorded at Hellion Studios


Throcult´s music is extremely dark. And at the same time they are extremely powerful. They have put together a lot of the black metl atmospheres with some of death metal riffs. In fact, the black metl side is more evident in the vocals and in some of the fast riffs (this guys have rehearsed a lot to put together the riffs so precissely being them so fast). The MCD starts with "Kill or be killed" a track with hyper fast riffs and a lot of keyboards progressions and one thing that is fundamental: a really memorable chorus. One thing that I have to mention are the keyboards: this guy is risponsible for a big part of the darkness that this recording has. In fact, when he enters with his keys doing some chord progressions or interacting with the guitars, you can feel the darknes, the loneliness and obscurity that they want to transmit (check the beginning of "Hunted"). A band to be followed closely.

Favorite tracks: The three
