The debut LP by Sammas Equinox, from the mastermind behind Blood Red Fog along with members of Necropole, Funerary Bell and Moon Oracle!
Sammas’ Equinox evolve from punky black metal to atmospheric along the lines of early Sombres Forets, with a good chunk of early Satyricon discernible in the lead guitars.
They have essentially melded the primitive, raw, melodic style that borrows heavily from punk in terms of rhythm and straight up catchy riffs and melded this with minimalist symphonics. The resulting album, against all odds, keeps one guessing. The production is relatively straightforward, operating on common ground for lo-fi black metal, but with enough clarity for the guitars to display their simple yet elegant melodic core. Raw punky drums and standard mid-range black metal vocals bookmark this supremely well!
