Satyricon – The Age Of Nero (2008)

February 28, 2020

After Now, Diabolical the Age Of Nero feels like Satyricon’s “if it ain’t broke…” moment. Which is fine, in all honesty, as the album is fucking super solid, if not a little predictable. The songs are tight as fuck, from Frost’s drumming to the razor sharp guitars, this is the perfect balance of rock n roll swagger and lethal black metal precision. There’s too many good tracks to list them all, but “Black Crow On A Tombstone” is probably my favourite.
