New Darkthrone album announced.

"Hi folks, it's time to talk a bit about our new album - and as I don't like to talk or write about music much I can say that it is more serious and primitive than usual. Vocals are only done by Ted as I thought this would create a more solemn/introvert atmosphere. The album is called ARCTIC THUNDER because it is my fave bandname (old mega-obscure Norwegian band from the 80s that I asked the permission from to use as an album title). Meanwhile here is the cover, it is from the personal camping archives from a trip some years ago to SPÅLSBERGET in Nordmarka. IT has the usual spruce-tree skyline and also a bonfire - there will be another limited colour version with orange logo and title, because that was MY favourite colour, but the usual release looks like this in silver - as this was Ted's favourite version."

Super excited for more grim Darkthrone!! Although if I'm honest I really liked F.O.A.D

^ Oh yeah, Nailbomb. That was a side project of Max Cavalera from Sepultura. Album was decent IIRC. Gonna have to go back and listen.

Some related obligatory Sepultura in metal thread.





If you aren't familiar with Sepultura, listen to all of Beneath the Remains, Arise, and Chaos A.D. Definitely 3 of the best metal albums ever produced.

Their other stuff is kinda hit or miss, especially after they changed out a lot of members.

This has been one of my favorite bandcamp finds in a while. The entire album is good, but this track in particular is special. The atmospheric space has been saturated lately but this one hits all the right notes for me.
