More about 'Sardonic Wrath (Repress Moonfog)'

Norwegian black metal legends Darkthrone delivered another crushing blow to the underground with "Sardonic Wrath", their tenth full-length studio album that showcases the duo's relentless commitment to pure, uncompromising black metal. Fenriz and Nocturno Culto crafted eight tracks of blistering darkness that feel both familiar and refreshingly direct, stripping away any unnecessary elements to focus on what they do best - creating atmosphere through razor-sharp riffs and venomous vocals. The production maintains that signature raw edge that has become synonymous with the band's later works, while the songwriting demonstrates a maturity that comes from decades of perfecting their craft.

The album stands as a testament to Darkthrone's ability to evolve while staying true to their black metal roots, featuring tracks that range from mid-paced crushers to full-throttle assaults on the senses. Songs like "Information Wants to Be Syndicated" and "Sjakk Matt Jesu Krist" showcase the band's knack for memorable riffs wrapped in their trademark lo-fi aesthetic. The Norwegian duo proves once again that complexity isn't necessary when you have such a clear vision and the skills to execute it flawlessly, making this release essential listening for anyone who appreciates authentic black metal without pretense.
