2 x red vinyl, gatefold sleeve, crushing black metal masterpiece.
Satan’s Kingdom picks up where the 2021 debut album finished, offering an equally intense assault, but introducing an even greater level of musicianship and performance, as well as more sophisticated songwriting.
An hour in length, it is a dynamic work that contains moments of absolutely frenzied black metal bombardment, as well as more epic, earnest and atmospheric numbers. Clean guitars and vocal parts are used selectively and effectively, with surprisingly rousing choruses surfacing from the visceral songs.
‘Uncompromising’ can often mean generic, but Heathen Deity continue to fly the flag for aggressive and anti-religious black metal without ever being derivative. The songwriting shines, with an abundance of genuinely memorable riffs and stirring passages.
For fans of: Gorgoroth, Hecate Enthroned, Marduk, Setherial, early Mayhem.
Artwork once again created by our longtime comrade, the talented David Thiérrée.
