NECROPHOBIC
- The Nocturnal Silence
Blood Mark Production
Razor sharp death/black that has a production that isn't overly raw for a 1993 underground LP. This is the beginning of their career in the metal scene and what a gem this is! It's a sad thing about their guitarist though, he passed away in 2013 from suicide. Died too young that's for sure and he was featured in other bands such as a brief period in the band Dark Funeral. This one was a helluv an effort by the band especially named themselves off a Slayer song from 'Reign In Blood'. These guys don't fool around. The guitars were melodic and straightforward the highlight of the LP the vocals as well!
There is kind of an echo/reverb to the voice making it
sound darker than it really is. The musical aspect was quite original and
forthright. I enjoyed this whole release
it is a gem to their discography. Not a
lot of bands that fit in this category of metal.
The music isn't too fast but there is quite a bit of
tremolo picking and bar chords that make it sound pretty heavy. I like the harmonies. And the riffs sound a little bit like Dark
Funeral's and some other bands from the darker side of metal. I like the fact that they're underground
completely and their attitude seems to be "don't take no prisoners"
which reflects their musicianship.
I can't say more good things about this album that I
already talked about. They're quite
diverse and noteworthy. For a debut,
this shows some pretty good maturity musically.
I've owned some of their LP's before nothing as good as this one. This is where everything started for them and
they've been pretty popular in the metal community for underground music. I should've started collecting them from the
start, but I'm getting this when they've already been well established. Nevertheless, they're a great addition to
metal in general. They've had a long
career so far and are still active. I
hope they continue on this path of the underground scene.
