Darkthrone - Astral Fortress - LP

  • Description

    A NEW, STELLAR & ECLECTIC JOURNEY OF OLD METAL IN THE DARKTHRONE ODYSSEY. PRESENTED ON BLACK VINYL WITH PRINTED INNER SLEEVE.

    From their formation back in 1986, to becoming one of Norway’s finest musical exports (with several highly revered black metal masterpieces released in the early 90’s helping to solidify their legacy), Darkthrone has continued to evolve & challenge in equal measure, throughout their illustrious recording career spanning over three decades. And now, the ever-productive duo of Nocturno & Fenriz continue their own metallic saga with a new selection of fine, vintage sounding headbanging classics in the making.

    ‘Astral Fortress’ is itself a swift follow-up to 2021’s ‘Eternal Hails’ opus, because of Darkthrone’s consistent & ongoing writing process, which has been in force for some years now. For Darkthrone does not sleep - it only waits.

    Carried on the brisk wind of eager rock, with foundations in black, thrash, doom & heavy metal, ‘Astral Fortress’ is the latest album of stellar, eclectic old metal in the Darkthrone odyssey. With a seemingly endless dungeon full of heavy metal influences channelled through Darkthrone’s dynamic riff-machine, plus also with many increasing inspirations taken from their own past catalogue, Darkthrone has truly become its own beast within the metal world. Even though sprinkled with atmospheric touches such as synthesizers & mellotron on ‘Astral Fortress’ to great effect, the Darkthrone sound remains stripped down to the core; always primitive & organic.
