Combining elements of hardcore and sludge with influences from occult black metal as well as drone, 'A Throne of Ash' sets a new benchmark for vitriolic viciousness and massive sonic onslaught. The third full-length of the band from Stockholm turns out to be a vision of darkness that seeks its equal. This new monstrous black beast is a dark journey written in a barrage of heavy and intense riffing, ferocious blast beats, nightmarish soundscapes, ritualistic howls and occult themed vocals. Brace for impact!
