A sulfurous stench, as in diabolic apparitions, ushers in the self-titled debut album from Norwegian Black Metal 4-piece Beyond Man. Dormant for over a decade, the project once known as Vordrinn has been awakened like an ancient curse from an old and sandy burial ground. In an epoch of records in which resounds the dull embellished atmosphere of a cozy bedroom, these tracks smells of old amplifiers drenched in rotten blood, ash and whisky, the reek of a cave I dare you to enter, where the frustrations of a group of Satanic cowboys take sonic form together with their zealot visions and nightmares, veiled by a truly ferocious and sinister aura. Call it Black Metal if you wish, or envision Morbid Angel sitting down with Black Sabbath and listening to Norwegian Black Metal while sharing a bottle of red wine followed by straight shots of heavy smoked whisky. Nidrosian Black Metal at its very finest.
