Badass black/thrash/heavy metal.
Took the week off from work and I'm finding so much shit I need to get.

From the holy kingdom of Harmonia
I know I've said it (probably several times) before but this is really the best album in the last ten years atleast.
It is kind of weird it's an album out of time of sorts, in the way that it is quite new but could have been released anywhere from the 90s to now. Not old school sounding or retro but not modern either. It isn't groundbreaking or exprimental but still manage to feel fresh. It's pretty much what you expect from Summoning but it doesn't feel redundant in any way at all.
Summoning just do their thing, say fuck off to the rest and just delivers. Not like other bands, take Darkthrone for example that tries too hard to have a "fuck off we do our own thing" attitude nowdays.

That album might be my favorite Summoning album ever actually. It's extremely hard for me to explain why. I've tried to write a review of that album several times but always found myself unable to express how I really felt about it. As you said, it's part old Summoning and part new Summoning. It's the perfect balance of everything you love of pre-Stronghold Summoning and everything you live of post-Dol Guldur Summoning. And the lyrical concept reflects that as well. It's still Tolkien, but the band go back before the events of the LOTR, before the events of the Silmarillion, to the very creation of Arda. "Old Morning's Dawn" is exactly that, old mornings becoming new again.
Fuck it, I'm blasting it at full volume now.

How did I not hear this sooner? Incredibly melodic for being on the lo-fi side of things. Rather solid bass presence too.

Lo-fi?! There's nothing lo-fi about it. And lo-finess generally has nothing to do with how melodic things are either. Transilvanian Hunger is almost entirely streams of melody for example.How did I not hear this sooner? Incredibly melodic for being on the lo-fi side of things. Rather solid bass presence too.
But yes, Aeternus is amazing. Check out the following album as well if you haven't. It's just as good.

Death Breath's Stinking Up the Night is a bloody orgy of gloriousness. Chopping Spree, track 2, is boot stomping, room destroying murder song and A Morbid Mind track six is that deranged shriek in t he night. Some of the members are from Possessed and that is totally apparent. Love n every song on this album, even the outro and I usually think outros are superfluous.

Possessed? I don't think so.
Entombed, Runemagick, Repulsion, Grave, Merciless... But not Possessed, unless I'm the confused one.
