Horde Of Hel - Doden Nalkas (Vinyl/Record)

Many years passed, and many presumed HORDE OF HEL dead. Far from it: the most ULTRA ultraviolence was simply lying in wait! And now it has arrived with Döden Nalkas, doubtlessly the most extreme (or at least extremely unforgiving) record you’ll hear all year – or perhaps all decade. All the rudiments of its no-less-considerable predecessor have been pushed into the red: drums reaching 500 BPM, the guitars slicing like barbed wire at warp speed, vocals approaching blackout levels of seething vitriol, the ambient elements wrapping all around the wreckage in dizzying, disorienting darkness. But, this new guise of HORDE OF HEL is a unified trio – a connection between and within three individuals – and thus are its effects felt across Döden Nalkas. Of them, perhaps the most pronounced are the integration of real drums from the ever-prolific Nils “Dominator” Fjellström, who played with Odhinn in In Battle and more recently in The Wretched End and Nordjevel, among others; this symbiosis straddles the line between over-the-top gabber and black metal’s outermost reaches of intensity. Likewise, the arrival of vocalist Sanctvs (also of Nordjevel) has injected an even greater intensity into HORDE OF HEL’s already-incomprehensibly-intense attack. Simply put, put on headphones and your ears will be absolutely PUNISHED by Döden Nalkas!
