That's Swedish band Vertein! Their 7th album in 4 years is a masterpiece that shines with melodic and epic elements reminiscent of bands like Dissection, amidst its relentlessly evil atmosphere. This is true black metal!\" Black metal, which originated in Norway in the early 1990s, was truly the music of the devil. In fact, church arson and even murder were rampant in the scene. Black metal was not just an image, but truly terrifying music. However, black metal later gained mainstream recognition by shedding its truly dangerous aspects. Its satanic and violent image became merely an image. But even now in 2022, there are still truly dangerous bands. Swedish band V?rtein is a prime example. At an American festival, they beat up members of D.R.I. who rushed onto the stage during their performance in front of the audience. When they came to Japan in 2011, there is an anecdote that they physically punished a band they didn't like the behavior of. V?rtein is a band where the clich? \"Black metal seems scary, but the people are actually nice when you meet them\" doesn't apply. They were formed in 1998. Vertain made their album debut in 2000 with \"Rabid Death's Curse.\" Vertain truly shines in live performances. Their stage presence is a ritual in itself. The spectacle, sometimes engulfing the entire stage in flames, is nothing short of breathtaking. With a stage performance that pushes the theatricality of black metal to its limits and boasts an unimaginable level of perfection, they quickly conquered the black metal scene. Now, Vertain is releasing their seventh album, \"The Agony and Ecstasy of Vertain.\" This is their first release since moving from Century Media to Nuclear Blast, and this time, it's mainly fast-paced tracks. It's a quintessential black metal album. Their characteristic features include a melodic and epic quality reminiscent of Swedish bands like Dissection, glimpsed amidst the relentlessly evil atmosphere. (Erik has even played bass in Dissection's live shows.) Black metal fans simply cannot miss this album. Farida Lemusi (formerly of The Devil's Blood, currently of Molasses) and Gottfried Oman (formerly of In Solitude) make guest appearances. [Members] E. Danielsson (vocals) P. Forsberg (guitar) H.
