Black Metal

A raw edge. A darker kind of momentum.

A rougher listening route into the archive. Follow the title track’s attack, then listen for the way the rhythm section keeps the songs moving beneath the distortion. Black Metal brings a coarse, direct energy to this selection beside Slayer’s tightly wound attack.
