The Classics: Under a Funeral Moon


Gîl síla na lû govaded

I would suggest reading the 'Proem' under 'Pages' for a brief introduction.
To begin I'll start with the definition of Black Metal: Under a Funeral Moon.


On their third release, Darkthrone defined 'True Norwegian Black Metal.' This album is a perfect starting point for fresh ears wanting to get a taste of what legitimate Black Metal is. Their debut was actually a Death Metal record, but growing tired of that trend they began writing Black Metal. The second release 'A Blaze in the Northern Sky' was their first attempt at a new genre, it defiantly has some great atmosphere and killer riffs, but is not quite 100% Black Metal, this is why my suggestion goes to their tertian album. If you only have time for one song, jump into 'Summer of Diabolical Holocaust.' This album's production is great! Drums really shine in capturing the Black Metal sound. Gaze into her lunar presence and enjoy.
