Our Take

Darkthrone's latest offering, "Sardonic Wrath," is like a heavy metal hurricane that sweeps you off your feet and never lets you go. The Norwegian duo's blend of black metal and thrash is as ferocious as ever, with snarling vocals and blistering guitar riffs that will leave you headbanging until your neck hurts.

From the moment the opening track hits, you know you're in for a wild ride. "Information Wants to Be Syndicated" is a relentless onslaught of blast beats and tremolo-picked guitars that set the tone for the rest of the album. The production is raw and gritty, giving the music a sense of urgency and immediacy that is hard to ignore.

But don't let the aggression fool you - there is a method to the madness here. Darkthrone's songwriting is tight and focused, with each track packing a punch and leaving a lasting impression. "Sardonic Wrath" is an album that demands your attention and rewards repeated listens, with hidden layers of complexity that reveal themselves over time.

In a music scene that is often saturated with conformity and mediocrity, Darkthrone stands out as a beacon of individuality and creativity. "Sardonic Wrath" is a testament to their uncompromising vision and unwavering dedication to their craft. So crank up the volume, throw up the horns, and let Darkthrone take you on a journey through the darkest corners of the metal world.

About the artist

Darkthrone

Darkthrone - the Norwegian black metal duo hailing from Kolbotn, consisting of Fenriz and Nocturno Culto - are the epitome of raw, unapologetic, and unbridled black metal energy. With a career spanning over three decades, Darkthrone have solidified themselves as pioneers of the genre, effortlessly blending elements of thrash, punk, and traditional heavy metal into their dark and atmospheric sound. Known for their non-conformity and constantly evolving musical style, Darkthrone have catapulted themselves into iconic status within the metal community. From their early days of creating blistering black metal anthems on albums like "A Blaze in the Northern Sky" and "Transilvanian Hunger" to their more recent explorations into punk and crust on releases like "The Underground Resistance" and "Old Star," Darkthrone continue to push boundaries and surprise audiences with their sonic experimentation. But don't let their serious and ominous aesthetic fool you - Fenriz and Nocturno Culto are also notorious for their wry sense of humour and irreverent attitude towards the traditional trappings of the metal scene. Whether they're poking fun at themselves in interviews or releasing tongue-in-cheek albums with titles like "F.O.A.D." (an acronym for "Fuck Off and Die"), Darkthrone remind us that metal can still be fun and rebellious, even in its darkest and most extreme forms. With a discography that spans genres and defies categorization, Darkthrone have cemented their place as one of the most important and influential bands in the metal world. So, the next time you find yourself craving some blackened riffs and unrelenting aggression, look no further than Darkthrone - the uncompromising kings of Norwegian black metal.
