LEnslaved: Enslaved reviewÿ
L2Written by Trauma/CADAVERÿ
Takeð yourselfð backð inð 1992,ð whenðoneðof
theðbestðCD'sðeverðwhereðreleased..
Youðrememberðit?ðItðwasðtheðsplitðCD
withðEmperorðandðEnslaved!ðFromðmy
pointðofðview,ðthisðis,ðtogetherðwith
Burzum:ðBurzumðandðRottingðChrist:
ThyðMightyðContract,ðtheðbest
Black-metalðalbumðever!!!ðIðlike
EmperorðbetterðthanðEnslaved,ðcos
Enslavedð
haveð
someð
songsð
thatð
areð
far
tooðlongðandðinð"oneðdirection"!!!
Well,ðnowðinð1994,ðEnslavedðhas
releasedðaðnewðalbumðthen!ðI'm
surprisedðofðtheðtitle!ðTheirðfirst
albumð(theðsplitðCD)ðwasðcalled
HordanesðLand,ðbutðthisðoneðisðsimply
calledð"Enslaved"!!ðIt'sðmostðcommon
toðcallðyourðfirstðalbumðtheðsameðas
yourðgroup'sðname,ðbutðtheseðguys
actuallyðcalledðtheirðsecoundðalbumðby
theirðname!ð(Iðknow,ðMetallicaðdid
similarðwithðtheirðlatestðalbumð-ed).
It'sð
quiteð
shockingð
whenð
youð
readð the
backðofðtheðcoverðonðthisðCD.ðItðonly
consistsðofð5ðsongs!ðButðasðmostðof
theðsongsðonð"HordanesðLand",ðthese
songsðareðfuckingðlong!!!ðMostð
ofð
them
areðaboutð7-8ðminutesðlong!!ðThisðisða
nastyðhatchðIðthink!ðTheð
songsð
canð
get
tooð
longð
andð
boring,ð
cosð
theyð useð very
littleðvocals!ðTheðsameðriffsðare
playedðinðveryðlooooooooongðsequences,
soðitðcanðgetðjustðaðbitðboring
sometimes,ðdependingðonðwhatðmoodðyou
areðin!
OK,ðnowðlet'sðgetðbackðtoðaðlittle
moreðdetailedðdescriptionðofðtheðmusic!
Theð
soundð
isð
theð
sameð asð theyð usedð on
"Hordanesð Land",ð butð theð styleðofðriffs
andðatmosphereðisðaðbitðdifferent!ðI
thinkðtheyðhaveðlotsðofðgreatðriffs
hereð(expeciallyðtheðfirstðriffðonðthe
album!!ð -ed),ð andð theyð haveð managedð to
getðaðreallyðdarkðandðdepressing
atmosphere;ðjustðtheðwayðIðlikeðit!!ðI
don'tðthinkðthatðtheyðcanðbeðcompared
toðtheðdarknessðandðtheðdepressions
thatð BURZUMð andð IMMORTALð play,ð butðit's
OKðanyway!ðIt'sðNorwegianðquality
Black-metalðforðsure!
Oneðthingðthatðisðquiteðcoolðand
funnyðwithðthisðalbum,ðisðthatðthey
haveðwrittenðIcelandicðlyricsðandðthey
alsoðsingðonðthatðlanuage!ðTheðlyrics
areðtranslatedðintoðEnglishðtoo,ðbut
fuck,ðtheðIcelandincðlyricsðareðreally
greatð(ifðIðonlyðcouldðunderstandðit!!
-ed)!ðLot'sðofðstrangeð
charactersð
and
shit!ðNiceðwork!ðAðbitðdifferent!
Ok,ðIðdon'tðthinkðthere'sðanything
moreðtoðsayðaboutðthisðalbum,ðapart
fromð goð outð andð buyð it!!
PS.ðThisðrecordðisðnotðoutðonðOsmose
Productions!!!ð (What??ð Iðthought
EVERYðfuckingðBlack-metalðbandðwere
signedðupðwithðthem!ð-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha).
