The Swedish band Necrophobic has been around since the late '80s, but they are relatively unknown to most North American metalheads. Their latest release will definitely draw them some well deserved attention among black metal fans.
Hrimthursum is blackened death metal that is dark, fast, brutal and evil. They have the technical chops and musicianship of death metal along with the bleak atmosphere and lyrics of black metal. It's a lethal combination of crushing riffs, searing solos and raspy vocals from the bowels of hell.
