Музыка и песни Simulacro / Simulacro

Sardinia doesn’t immediately strike me as a natural hot-bed for black metal so much as a place my mother-in-law might go for a summer break. Clearly on some occult-fuelled mission the band’s debut ticks plenty of boxes and keeps things interesting without breaking the mould. This is hardly ripping up the old formulas and starting again. The stop and start of the slower parts may put off some into the more ferocious side of black and blackened thrash metal. But it makes a blood-curdling mess of a few existing black metal recipes and the final track drives the point home masterfully with a fist-clenched attack – finishing with the repeated refrain ‘destroy, destroy forever’. A point well-made and who could disagree. Record Label: De Tenebrarum Principio Atmf Style: Black Metal
