Description
"Nechrist" is probably the most peculiar record in Nokturnal Mortum's catalogue, simply because it's different from anything else they've done. This is by far their angriest, fastest, darkest and most aggressive record, and as such it's often labelled as "messy" or "chaotic": while it might result a bit difficult to digest during the first listens, "Nechrist" is a grower, and its beauty will slowly unfold to the listener each time he comes back to it. The album's production is quite raw, making a bit difficult to distinguish the fastest guitar patterns at times; the riffs generally consist in the traditional black metal tremolo picked frenzy, although slower sections are obviously present, with some interesting bridges here and there (the "breakdown" found at the end of "Night Before the Fight" is simply amazing). The bass isn't always audible, but where you can hear it you can say its patterns are definitely interesting. The drumming is astonishing, a real storm of blast beats and relentless double bass drumming, thus confirming Munruthel as the most technical drummer this band has ever laid its hands on.
