Background information about 'F.O.A.D.'

Darkthrone's "F.O.A.D." is an audacious blend of black and roll that challenges the boundaries of traditional metal genres. Released in 2007, this album stands as a testament to the band's evolution from its black metal roots. Laden with infectious riffs and a raw yet polished production, "F.O.A.D." exudes a rebellious spirit that is both nostalgic and refreshingly modern. The album opens with "These Shores Are Damned," setting the tone for an unapologetic journey through thrash-infused anthems and punk-laden tracks.

The symbiosis of Fenriz's percussive prowess and Nocturno Culto's piercing vocals crafts a soundscape that defies genres while maintaining authenticity. Tracks such as "Canadian Metal" and "The Church Of Real Metal" pay homage to the band's influences while carving out their distinct niche in the metal realm. Lyrically profound yet musically unrestrained, "F.O.A.D." captures the essence of rebellion, making it an essential listen for any devotee of extreme music.
