Our Take

Celtic Frost's "To Mega Therion" is a cacophony of metal mastery that transcends the boundaries of traditional genres and concepts. From the moment you press play, you are transported to a dark and mystical realm where guitars wail like tortured souls and drums pound with the fury of a thousand thunderstorms. This album is a journey through the twisted minds of its creators, Tom Gabriel Fischer and Martin Eric Ain, who lead you down a winding path of doom-laden riffs and haunting vocals. The production on "To Mega Therion" is raw and unpolished, giving the music a primal and intense energy that is missing from so many modern releases. The songs themselves are a mix of relentless aggression and eerie atmospherics, with tracks like "The Usurper" and "Necromantical Screams" standing out as highlights of the album. Fischer's vocals are guttural and menacing, adding a layer of menace to the already foreboding music. His lyrics delve into themes of occultism, mythology, and existential dread, creating a sense of unease that lingers long after the music has stopped. Overall, "To Mega Therion" is a masterpiece of dark and twisted metal that will appeal to fans of the genre and beyond. Celtic Frost have crafted a truly unique and innovative album that demands to be experienced in all its sinister glory.

About the artist

Celtic Frost

Celtic Frost - the legendary Swiss extreme metal band that has left a tsunami of influence in its wake. With roots going back to the early 1980s, Celtic Frost has continuously pushed the boundaries of what metal can achieve, blending elements of thrash, black metal, and gothic influences into their own dark, brooding sound. Led by the enigmatic frontman Tom G. Warrior, Celtic Frost has never been afraid to take risks and experiment with their sound. From the blistering aggression of their early albums like "Morbid Tales" and "To Mega Therion" to the more avant-garde explorations of "Into the Pandemonium," Celtic Frost has consistently kept fans on their toes. Their 2006 comeback album "Monotheist" was a revelation, proving that even after decades in the game, Celtic Frost still had plenty of fire left in them. With its crushing riffs, haunting atmospheres, and Warrior's iconic growls, "Monotheist" solidified Celtic Frost's place as one of the most respected and revered bands in the metal world. Despite their tumultuous history and numerous lineup changes, Celtic Frost remains a vital force in the metal scene, inspiring countless bands with their unique blend of aggression and artistry. Their legacy is undeniable, and their influence can be felt in everything from black metal to avant-garde and beyond. Celtic Frost may have weathered many storms over the years, but their music continues to stand the test of time, proving that true artistry knows no boundaries. Raise your horns to the gods of metal, for Celtic Frost reigns supreme.
