Dark Thrones & Black Flags [VINYL]

THE 2008 STORM OF HEADBANGING METALLIC ANTHEMS FROM THE NORWEGIAN LEGENDS PRESENTED ON BLACK VINYL. Darkthrone's 14th album, a perfect fusion of blackened rock, metal & punk was originally released in 2008. 'Dark Thrones & Black Flags' was a continuation of the Darkthrone sound, style & uncompromising attitude witnessed on the acclaimed 2007 album 'F.O.A.D.' & taken to the next level. 'Dark Thrones & Black Flags' is equal parts Fenriz & Nocturno Culto, as the longstanding duo share song-writing & vocal duties throughout the release & further perfect the art of "the riff". A mastery of both composition & pure organic sound is also evident for a celebrated album of stripped down, dirty metal. Recorded & produced by the band themselves at Necrohell II studios, Norway, 'Dark Thrones & Black Flags' is an exercise in pushing the conventions of the narrow perception of what should make black metal, becoming more timeless & faithful to its spirit in the process. Artwork appears courtesy of Dennis Dread, featuring the band's then-mascot, 'Mr Necro', used for the trilogy of releases at the time.
