THERION - Of Darkness... LP (Black Vinyl)

Did Therion play death metal? The answer can be quite shocking but it’s “yes”. Like Sentenced, for example, and other bands, also Therion started off as a death metal act to turn into something more acoustic and always less extreme as the time passed by. This “…Of Darkness” album is a dark piece of gloom death metal that has also some more dark and ritualistic passages. Lots of parts reminded me Cemetary because they are doomy with the keyboard sounds to fill the air with a sense of decadence and pure darkness.
