BEHERIT are back to their original raw Black Metal shape, fiercest than ever! Though they have made three full-length albums prior this one, only their 1993 debut full-length plays black metal music. Well, now they're back to business with their recent effort, "Engram". First of all, the production sounds raw, for this day and age, that is. The album could be described as very traditional to the roots (like Mayhem's debut full-length for instance) but with more fury. The guitars and drums play typical black metal riffs and beats that makes awesome music when put together. The vocals, though, are hell invoking raspy whispers. Both "Destroyer of Thousand Worlds" and "All Hail Satan" has incredible speed and minimalistic characteristics, with only 1-2 riffs played again and again. The bad side is that the two songs almost sound alike in every way. "Pagan Moon", though, is one heck of a trance, for a song anyway. The song really is different to the previous two songs primarily because of its slow tempo. "Suck My Blood", meanwhile has an eerie atmosphere throughout, still with the pummeling fury and of course, the minimalistic characteristics. Recommended to all fans of bestial demonic Black Metal in the true old school spirit!
