Sure, there are a lot of bands out there who sound like this. They are fully committed to creating black metal in the style of Scandinavia in the early 1990’s, with perhaps a dash of death or thrash thrown in here and there. DNS has no pretense of “innovation” or needless experimentation. The band’s sound rests on a firm foundation of fast drumming, dizzying guitar and bass work, and Onielar’s glorious shrieking vocals. Since then, they’ve led their nocturnal march through five full-length albums and fantastic live performances. They first stormed the scene with the mind-blowing The Pest Called Humanity demo, which displayed their dedication to this singular purpose.
In 1997, a group of German and Polish black metal devotees gathered to keep the flame of true, raw and ferocious black metal alive: Darkened Nocturn Slaughtercult. Six years after "Necrovision", DNS are now ready to unleash their sixth full-length "Mardom". In short: No search for the latest trend and the greatest genre extension here, but "almost forgotten traditions are kept firmly", as the band itself clarifies. Tradition, soul, coldness, stubbornness: this expresses the characteristics and trademarks of DARKENED NOCTURN SLAUGHTERCULT, a band that has grown and matured in the course of its 22-year existence into a distinctive institution of German Black Metal.ĭNS deliver a primarily classic, raw sound in the tradition of the Scandinavian (especially Norwegian) bands of the early and mid nineties like Immortal, Darkthrone and Gorgoroth.
