“Pure Negativity” is the debut album of Finnish black metal outfit,
Graveborne, founded in 2008 by guitarist
Marchosias and drummer
Pentele. Graveborne previously released one demo in 2009 entitled
“Astride Over
the Grave”, subsequently reissued on 10″ vinyl by Floga
Records. “Astride Over the Grave” obtained very
positive reviews, with
the music described as; raw, fast, and even catchy black metal
reminiscent of Marduk,
Gorgoroth, Impaled Nazarene, early Emperor and
Immortal.

2009 and 2010 saw Graveborne morph into a more hideous beast; Raato
replaced Raivo on vocal duties,
Graveborne performed an assortment of
high-intensity live shows including Nummirock 2010, and then started
to compose, rehearse and record the material for “Pure Negativity”.

Musically, “Pure Negativity” delivers a much wider spectre of darkness
than “Astride Over the Grave” due to the
cohesive and synergistic
involvement of Marchosias, Pentele, Brutalust and Kalmo in crafting
the songs. The blast
beats are still there, faster than before, and
the atmosphere still raw and gripping; Graveborne’s evolution is
evidenced through heightened song structure complexity and
development. The lyrical themes of the album
dwell in different forms
of negativity such as anti-Christian and anti-religious revelations,
loss of faith, hope and
humanity, despair, depression and suicide.
