A gathering of fiends, black hearts every one
The calling of the coven at the setting of the sun
Sorcerers and ghouls in obeisance to the night
Await the witching hour and the lady in white
Incantations read
Virgin has been bled
Awakening the dead
Wailing and cavorting, the sacrifice brought near
Sweating shaking screaming, body quakes with fear
A maiden on the altar, the table painted red
A bride of Christ, a sacrifice, and soon to be dead
The lady of midnight
Queen Nightshade
Mistress of the sabbat

Pretty much the best Black/Speed Metal I've listened to since I learned about Evil Invaders and Vulture. Everything you'd love to be reminded of about this musical era is there. The influences are what you'd expect too: Motörhead, Venom, Bathory, early Slayer, Celtic Frost; aggressive vocals, tortured guitar solos, pounding drums; everything is fast, clear and still a little grimy, but without reverb cranked up to the max. Amazing band, amazing album. Odiumediae

Ce qu'il y a de bien dans les débuts d'un groupe, c'est qu'il y a une plus grande variété dans le style, avant qu'ils ne se soient fixés sur un en particulier. C'est le cas ici, avec des pistes plus heavy rythmées (Phantoms of the Sky, Leather Demon), de belles tranches de doom (Inquisition, Deathwell), il y a cette souplesse dans la musique et cette facilité à jongler entre les genres typique des groupes nouveaux venus ultra-motivés qui compense le manque de bouteille. joH1
