Darkthrone – Pre-Historic Metal

Description

Darkthrone return with Pre-Historic Metal, a new studio album built from the duos enduring love of raw, old-school metal. Fenriz describes the title as reflecting their approach: using classic styles to forge something of their own. Across eight tracks, Fenriz and Nocturno Culto deliver primal riffs, driving rhythms and an organic sound steeped in the spirit of 1970s and 1980s heavy music. Moving through thrash, black, heavy and doom metal, the album recalls the stripped-back writing style of the bands early years while sharpening it with decades of experience. Recorded at Chaka Khan Studios in Oslo and mastered by Jack Control and Maor Appelbaum, Pre-Historic Metal stands as another fierce chapter in the long-running catalogue of Darkthrone.
