Our Take
Our Take
Darkthrone's Transilvanian Hunger is a chilling masterpiece that will leave you feeling like you've been transported to the frozen wastelands of Norway. The album is like a blast of icy wind to the face, with its raw and unrelenting black metal sound.
From the moment the first track, "Transilvanian Hunger," kicks in, you know you're in for a wild ride. The riffs are razor-sharp, the vocals are haunting, and the overall atmosphere is as dark and frostbitten as a Norwegian winter. It's the kind of music that makes you want to throw on your corpse paint and headbang until your neck hurts.
But what really sets Transilvanian Hunger apart is its DIY ethos. Darkthrone recorded the album on a shoestring budget, using only the most basic equipment. And yet, the stripped-down production only adds to the album's raw and primal energy. It's like listening to a black metal band playing in your garage – if your garage happened to be located in the ninth circle of hell.
So if you're in the mood for some cold, grim, and utterly bleak music, look no further than Transilvanian Hunger. It's a classic of the genre, and a must-listen for any true black metal fan. Just be sure to wrap up warm – things are about to get frosty.

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.
