I hope a new album will vindicate the band after the virtually unlistenable Upheaval of Satanic Might. Ugh, that release is terrible. |
You don't like that album? I think it's a fucking classic. |
I'm sorry, but no. Aside from the great Moyen artwork and the Blasphemy cover of "Ritual" (which was obviously recorded from a separate session entirely since the production is supreme in comparision to the remainder of the album), I just can't get through it anymore due to the lousy production. I actually tried to listen to it again within the past week and only got as far as the third track before skipping to "Ritual" and then put something else on. I want to like it, I try to like it, but it just doesn't happen. Don't get me wrong, I like their music a lot; Desecration of the Holy Kingdom is a fucking MONSTER of a debut full-length, and they KILL live, but taking all of that into account and then hearing the second full-length that followed crushed me, and not in a good way. Had the production been the same or similar to Desecration of the Holy Kingdom, I doubt I would spit scorn upon it. Desecration of the Holy Kingdom captured the essence of Black Witchery as they should be heard from a studio setting. I seriously hope the next full-length is a return to the fucking POWER that was Desecration of the Holy Kingdom.

| Just had some more information about the split. It'll be a double 12"LP and will contain live material recorded in Bitterfeld/Germany. |

That album is a joke, it probably took them 20 minutes to write and record it. A good sum of everything that is wrong with bestial/war metal. |

I'm not going to argue the merits of this album or try to convince you guys that you should like it, other than to say that I think it's a gross misunderstanding of what BW accomplished with Upheaval to call it a joke, or to say that it has lousy production. Personally, I hope they carry on in the direction or Upheaval, and take it even further. |

| Personally, I love Upheaval of Satanic Might. I believe it is a brilliant piece of black metal savagery and an album worthy of a lot of praise. I hope the next Black Witchery album is just as savage as Upheaval of Satanic Might was. |

Fair enough. I agree with Angel16 that Upheaval of Satanic Might is definitely a love it or hate it kind of album. I haven't heard anyone say otherwise.
