A Diabolic Thirst

Unapologetically devoted to the ferocious, cold sound of classic 90s Scandinavian extreme metal, the Montreal quintet perfected a relentless barrage of tremolo picking and blast beats. The album is remarkably focused, prioritizing triumphant, icy melodies and visceral aggression over modern post-metal experimentation. It was widely celebrated by purists as one of the most thrilling and razor-sharp traditional black metal releases of the year.
