Background information über 'Chimera'

Norwegian black metal legends Mayhem return with their crushing fourth full-length "Chimera", marking a decisive shift back to their roots after the experimental departure of "Grand Declaration of War". This album sees the band diving headfirst into the abyss once more, crafting their most unforgiving and sinister work to date. The record pulses with raw malevolence, featuring tracks like "Whore" and "Rape Humanity with Pride" that showcase the band's ability to channel pure darkness into devastating sonic assaults. The production maintains that classic Norwegian black metal rawness while allowing each instrument to cut through the mix with surgical precision.

What makes "Chimera" particularly compelling is how it bridges Mayhem's legendary past with their continued evolution as masters of extremity. Songs like "Dark Night of the Soul" and "Slaughter of Dreams" demonstrate the band's knack for creating atmosphere that's both suffocating and hypnotic, while "Impious Devious Leper Lord" delivers the kind of blasphemous intensity that made them icons of the genre. The album flows seamlessly from moments of calculated brutality to passages of eerie, almost ritualistic ambiance, proving that Mayhem hasn't lost an ounce of their ability to terrify and captivate simultaneously.

For fans of:
Darkthrone, Gorgoroth, Immortal, Watain, 1349, and Marduk
