Abazagorath--The Satanic Verses cd {Eternal Death Rec.}
Abazagorath have been creating and releasing some classic black metal releases since 1996.And to be honest I lost touch with their career after their debut cd and recently got the new cd from Eternal Death Rec.But with their newest release "The Satanic Verses" sounds like Abazagorath haven't lost their touch still creating and executing fast and fierce black metal.Extremly fast and chaotic guitar riffs that do slow to a more mid-paced speed with some very good guitar chords and patterns before going back to hyperspeed riffs.The drumming is extremely well done with precise and fast blast beats but do slow it down to a more mid-paced range to keep up with the guitarist and keep the music fresh and aggressive.The vocalist does a great job with raw and raspy screams that are done with a lot of power and aggressive vocal patterns.This is one of Abazagorath's best release's that I have heard and if you are a fan of this band or just a fan of black metal then do yourself a favor and pick this up today.
