Our Take
Our Take
VARATHRON's latest offering, "The Crimson Temple," is a headbanging journey through the depths of the darkness with a heavy dose of Greek black metal flair. The album kicks off with "Tenebrous" which sets the tone for the rest of the record with its eerie atmospheric intro and crushing riffs that will have you headbanging in no time.
Tracks like "Luciferian Mystical Awakening" and "Sulphur, Scourge of the Earth" showcase the band's ability to seamlessly blend melodic guitar lines with blistering blast beats, creating a sound that is both aggressive and haunting. The title track, "The Crimson Temple," is a standout with its infectious chorus and intricate guitar work that will have you hitting replay over and over again.
Despite sticking to the traditional black metal formula, VARATHRON manages to inject a sense of freshness and innovation into their music, keeping the listener engaged from start to finish. The production on the album is top-notch, with every instrument shining through the mix and creating a wall of sound that will transport you to the depths of Hades.
Overall, "The Crimson Temple" is a must-listen for any fans of the black metal genre. VARATHRON has once again proven why they are legends in the metal scene, delivering an album that is as ferocious as it is melodic. So grab your leather jacket, crank up the volume, and prepare to be taken on a wild ride through the darkness with VARATHRON.
