Satanic Warmaster – Nachzehrer (2010)

May 1, 2024

Stellar effort from Satanic Warmaster. I’m not sure what it is about this one that just hits so well compared to the others, but hit it does. As much as I appreciate Carelian Satanic Madness, I’ve not enjoyed a SW album as much as this since Strength & Honour. The production feels a little bit more lo-fi than usual, but this may just be how the drums have been recorded. The hat trick of “Warmaster Returns”, “One Shining Star” and “Bestial Darkness” is near unbeatable black metal.
