Paragon Belial are a band from Germany that plays a very raw and primitive form of satanic black metal and this is a review of their 1996 album "Hordes Of The Darklands" which was released by Folter Records.
Drums range from slow, mid paced to fast drumming with some blast beats being utilized at times, while the bass playing it has a very dark tone with riffs that follow the riffing that are coming out of the guitars.
Rhythm guitars range from slow, mid paced to fast old school 90's black metal riffs that are very dark, raw and primitive sounding with some melody being thrown into the riffing at times as well as a brief use of soft and clean playing, while the lead guitars when they are utilized are very raw and primitive sounding black metal guitar leads that do not really go into solos, as for the acoustic guitars they are only used briefly and they use full chords and finger picking to add more darkness to the recording.
Vocals are mostly grim sounding hateful black metal screams along with a small amount of deep growls, while the lyrics cover Satanism, Darkness, and Anti Christian themes, as for the production it has a very dark, raw and primitive sound to it.
In my opinion Paragon Belial are a very great sounding raw and primitive satanic black metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Coming Of A New Dynasty" "Horns Of Reprisal" and "Necromancer Of the Dark Valley". RECOMMENDED BUY.
