Darkthrone - "His Master's Voice" (lyric video)

Ο δίσκος των Darkthrone "Eternal Hails"
Only in sleep some relief
Could be found
Ninth circle bound
Gorgeous radioactive structures
Heaving with their dormant pulse

Tied to the mast
With his master's voice
This will never last
Hearing his master's voice

Cling to collapsing towers
Death flashes before your eyes
Reel at what could have been
Lost lives drain (the) within

Tied to the mast
With his master's voice
Today will be the last
Hearing of his master's voice

(He) howls inside the golden calf I welded
Vengeant ghosts accompany your choice
Wishing you could have a life anew
The silent crowds point steadily at you

Tied to the mast
With his master's voice
Today will be the last
Hearing of his master's voice

Cling to collapsing towers
Death flashes before your eyes
Reel at what could have been
Lost lives drain (the) within


«Five heavy dinosaurs looking in wonder and bewilderment at the stars» μας λέει ο Fenriz προετοιμάζοντας το έδαφος για τον καινούριο δίσκο των Darkthrone. Ο διάδοχος του album "Old Star" (2019) και 19ος συνολικά "ολοκληρωμένος" δίσκος των Νορβηγών metallers τιτλοφορείται "Eternal Hails......" και κυκλοφορεί ήδη...

Δελτίο τύπου: «The Norwegian black metal legends, show that within five tracks and 45 minutes on their 19th album, Eternal Hails, they remain defiantly and eternally Darkthrone.

Since forming in 1986 as Black Death in Kolboton, Norway, Darkthrone have been masters of their art. Dropping the death metal of 1991’s Soulside Journey debut album in favour of a more primitive, black metal sound on the following year’s A Blaze In The Northern Sky, they helped define black metal in the ‘90s through albums like 1993’s Under A Funeral Moon and its follow-up Transilvanian Hunger. Truly, though, Darkthrone remain unique, even in their own canon.

On Eternal Hails, the longer, doomier songs reflect drummer Fenriz’s love of doom, taking their time to make their point. For Fenriz, what he and co-conspirator Nocturno Culto have concocted stretches back even further than discovering black metal, to the sounds of the ‘70s and the more freewheeling sounds of bands playing with more expansive themes. This didn’t just make the songs longer, it made them an entirely different beast from the ground up.

In a world changing too fast for anything to stick, Darkthrone are both able to stay fresh, but also reassuringly reliable. And no matter where they record, what they do or what gear the use to do it, this, it seems, will never and can never change.

As Fenriz himself puts it, “No matter what happens we will still sound like us, it seems!”»

Peaceville Records: «With the highly revered Norwegians remaining ever-dedicated to the art of the riff after 35 years of existence, Darkthrone return for album number nineteen and a new dose of metallic godliness.

On the back of 2019’s triumphant ‘Old Star’ opus, the duo of Nocturno Culto & Fenriz present a 41 minute maelstrom of Epic Black Heavy Metal across five sprawling compositions. Organic and dynamic, the album is an exploration of the very finest vintage metal and the best of doom, all delivered in the unmistakable Darkthrone style, whilst also incorporating instruments such as the Moog to further expand upon these soundscapes.

Eschewing the process of using their own Necrohell II studios - which has served the band so well over the last 15 years - & welcoming a change of environment and the opportunity to experiment with new ideas, ‘Eternal Hails......’ was recorded at Chaka Khan Studio in Oslo, & engineered by Ole Ovstedal & Silje Høgevold, breathing new life into the sound while retaining the essence of Darkthrone’s natural, raw feeling.

The cover artwork features the piece “Pluto and Charon” (1972), from renowned science fiction artist David A. Hardy; a hugely inspirational image for both Fenriz & Nocturno Culto spanning several decades, and this also stands as a symbolic link between the genre-bending styles apparent on Darkthrone’s earliest works, to those same traits evident on ‘Eternal Hails......’.»

  1. Δεν τον έχω ακούσει ολόκληρο οπότε δεν ξέρω τι παίζει με τα άλλα τρία τραγούδια, αλλά στα δύο που πόσταρες μου λείπει το επικό στοιχείο του προπέρσινου Old Star. Πάντως μπάντα που κυκλοφορεί δίσκο όπου το μικρότερο τραγούδι είναι επτά λεπτά απλά ρισπέκτ! Εν τω μεταξύ ο ήχος είναι εκπληκτικός!

    1. Να τον ακούσεις (ολόκληρο εννοώ). Για τον ήχο συμφωνώ απόλυτα. Retro χωρίς να ακούγεται μέσα από πηγάδι...

    1. Μην συμφωνείς μαζί του, είναι παλιοχαρακτήρας και θα σε παρασύρει στον όλεθρο και στην καταστροφή πριν το καταλάβεις! (αχαχαχαχαχαχαχαχα)
