A new review section: Buried by Time And Dust

We added a new review section, coincidentally another Mayhem reference following 'The Past is Alive', with the title 'Buried by Time and Dust'. Over the years, a lot of promos have been gathering dust simply because a fresh wave of promos arrived the following month and they were consigned to oblivion. We will review them here to make a clear distinction with our other reviews. We will also use it to complete a discography in terms of reviews. Feel free to contact us if you would like to submit your music or would like to join the staff.

Info

I can honestly say I know Archgoat since they reformed the band and released the “Angelslaying Black Fucking Metal” EP back in 2005, only then I started to look up the bands history, even though I knew about the split with Beherit, I never heard it before.This new release is, well almost exactly the same as any other previous materials, dark, aggressive like a rottweiler on steroids with the one and only goal, to destroy Christianity. I don’t want to sound like an idiot but didn’t we hear these themes before? “Nuns cunts and Darkness” is sort of a “Rise of the Black Moon” with different lyrics, we can hear a nice Beherit “The Gate of Nanna” cover-like song and over and over again the good old moments somehow dressed up differently. It has good moments and few good songs but still I find it average. If you don’t expect anything new from a band, this album might be OK but if you do, you will agree with me that this release is just an echo rather than a real voice. (Frank)
