5.0 out of 5 stars Yummy evil..., April 26, 2001

This review is from: Celtic Winter (Audio CD)

Friedrich-esque cover art, acidic (grim, man) vo-kills, doomy keyboards, hate-filled pagan atmosphere, what's NOT to love! Corrosive, vile, grating. For fans of black metal, church burning, homocide and general mayhem. Rob Darken's vision of pure barbarism and tenebrious forests that consume the enemy whole is sure to get the blood pumping for any budding berzerker. Don't like all-treble production and steel wool Killy Kill Killy aesthetics? You're in the wrong place, baby.

This review is from: Celtic Winter (Audio CD)

Searing and divisive black metal from Graveland continues the tradition of making gnarled, distorted mayhem that somehow contains melodies of emotional extremity swept into song. What divides both universe and human being is conflict twisted into hardcore riffing in majestic songs of rising melody in the midst of chaotic harmonizations toward the sweeter side of darkly dissonant. In every view into this morbid subconscious of heroic aspiration the music of Graveland takes the listener on a unique conceptual journey spelled out in the aesthetics of necrotic black metal. Highly recommended.

I don't like much Black Metal, but these songs would be pretty cool, if Rob Darken wasn't so racist and insane.
