....There has been some waiting, but at last the new SATYRICON album has finally been released . Its their 8th album entitled...." SATYRICON"
I have given it a quick listen bit I wont be judgemental just yet because it takes a few plays or more to get "into "....but there are surprises!
The track that hits you most is "Phoenix"....pure class! The surprise is that the vocal duty is by Sivert Hoyem....a guest from band MADRUGADA.He does a great job !...not that frontman Satyr has any fault with his style on the other songs

Compared to the usual stylie of black metal I loved the new Satirycon but the fact is it was a very watered down album musically and I can understand why some were disappointed in it actually.

MP I love that track "Phoenix" :grinthumb....One of my favourite tunes this year for sure . I don't know...I just pictured guest vocalist Sivert Hoyem with long hair.beard etc....not like Midge Ure of Ultravox ! :heheh:
Joking aside...Siverts vocals are VERY impressive...Iam going to check out his band
MADRUGADA

The new one is mediocre at best. Watered down music. They lowered themselves to a bit of a commercialised approach which defeats being black metal in the first place.

Nemesis Divina is a true masterpiece so far. Got great melodic section in the opening track The Conquering/Dawn of a New Age.

SATYRICON are a 1st class Norwegian black metal band . Formed 1990. Lead singer/guitarist " Satyr" took over vocal duties 91. SATYRICONs drummer"Frost" joined in 92.He had previously been in other black metal bands GORGOROTH and GEHENNA.
The bands debut album "Dark medieval times" showed off the bands fascination with the middle ages and even the flute was used as an instrument.
By 2000 the band had released their 4th album and had supported PANTERA. In 2006 SATYRICON released the excellent heavy album "Now,Diabolical":grinthumb which was contraversial amongst black metal fans due to its somewhat " radio friendly" take on black metal. No!!! they havent sold out.......theyve just become really good!!!
In 2008 they released their 7th album "The age of Nero"........things are really happening for this band.




wow only found this band in 2006 an Now, Dialolical friggin` awesome album now I`m hooked...
