IMPALED NAZARENE „Death Comes In 26 Careffuly Selected Pieces”

Impaled Nazarene poznałem stosunkowo niedawno, a dokładniej rzecz ujmując zacząłem poznawać, bowiem oprócz opisywanego albumu kocnertowego jak do tej pory nie znam nic tejże Fińskiej formacji. Ale odkąd usłyszałem (a dokładnie widziałem) na youtube klip do „armageddon Death Squad” to od razu stwierdziłem że to muza w sam raz dla mnie.

SEAR BLISS – Interview with Trombone Player Zoltán Pál

“The Arcane Odyssey” by SEAR BLISS seems tailor-made for fans of symphonic black metal. Not only did the band adhere to the conventions of black metal such as grim vocals for a grim guitar sound, a raw (although clear) production and blasting drumbeats, they also included uncommon instrumentation. On “The Arcane Odyssey”, one will hear various brass instruments such as trombone, trumpet and euphonium. This is no high school band nerd album, though; the group designed a sound that is grandiose and epic. Equally if not more important, they managed to separate their group from the millions of Casio-keyboard black metal bands. “The Arcane Odyssey” is a perfect mix of beautiful harmonies, triumphant brass orchestration and scathing black metal.

These Huns have been creating music of this scale since the early nineties, but due to small-label distribution, were never able to reach a massive scope of fans until now. This being their sixth release should find a much broader audience due to the wide-ranging distribution of Candlelight Records. Trombone player (I never thought I would say trombone and black metal in the same sentence) Zoltán Pál answered a few questions via email about this labyrinthine group.
