Thy Primordial/The Heresy Of An Age Of Reason/Pulverised Records/2000 CD Review


  Thy  Primordial  where  a  band  from  Sweden  that  played  a  very  fast  form  of  Swedish  black  metal  with  a  melodic  edge  and  this  is  a  review  of  their  200  album  "The  Heresy  Of  An  Age  Of  Reason"  which  was  released  by  Pulverised  Records.

  Drums  range  from  slow,  mid  paced  to  fast  drumming  with  a  good  amount  of  blast  beats  being  thrown  into  the  music,  while  the  bass  playing  has  a  very  dark  tone  with  riffs  that  follow  the  riffing  that  is  coming  out  of  the  guitars  and  at  times  they  sound  very  powerful.

    Rhythm  guitars  range from  slow,  mid paced  to  fast  Swedish  style  black  metal  riffs  that very  dark,  heavy  and  brutal  sounding  with  a  great  amount  of  melody  being  thrown  into  the  riffing  as  well  as  a  brief  use  of  clean  playing in  addition  some  of the  songs  are  very  long  and  epic  in  length  and  there  are  little  to  no  guitar  solos  or  leads  present  on  this  recording.

  Vocals  are  all  high  pitched  black  metal  screams,  while  the  lyrics  cover  Darkness,  Occultism,  Evil  and  Antichrist  themes,  as  for  the  production  it  has  a  very  dark,  powerful,  heavy  and  professional  sound  where  you  can  hear  all  of  the  musical  instruments  that  are  present  on this  recording.

  In  my  opinion  Thy  Primordial  where  a  very  great  sounding  Swedish  style  black  metal  band  with  a  melodic  edge  and  if  you  are  a  fan  of  this  style,  you  should  check  out  this  recording.  RECOMMENDED  TRACKS  INCLUDE  "Ex  Opers  Operatu"  "Tyrannize"  and  "The  Enigma  Of  The  Fall".  RECOMMENDED  BUY.
