LP Review: "Necrogenesis" by Nordjevel

Necrogenesis

There are a great number of reasons to enjoy metal. When talking to someone that it's important not think of me as some deranged serial killer listening to Mayhem...

Perhaps, casually, it's well, metal has the best guitar players... (and it's true don't @ me. Or do. Whatever.)

The truest reasoning though, is that metal is the scariest of all music. It's the angriest of all music.

Horror and Anger really helped me navigate my teenage years. Even decades later, it's still important to maintain that.

The venerable Osmose Productions is about to release another gem of a black metal record, by Nordjevel.

This band features ex-Morbid Angel, Destructhor. That's the coolest and oddest ex-Morbid Angel member possible. Though, I wasn't a big fan of Ilud Divinum Insanus, Necrogenesis is precisely the kind of metal I want to hear.

It's a strange cross between Black Metal and Death Metal. It's the kind of music that someone should be playing during the good scenes in the old 80's blood and guts horror flicks.

That's why it's great.
