Nortavlaggh.377
– Demo 2021
Singapore
Independent
Nortavlaggh.377 is a Singapore-based one-man project that has been around since 2004 with only a couple of demos and one split under its belt. Now, I haven’t heard much of their old material, but I can confidently assert that the new demo slays on all fronts. The three tracks featured here are absolutely fierce Black/Death in the purest sense that sometimes borders on War metal.
Whether
it's the riffs, the vocals, or the arrangements, everything is
exceptionally
well-executed,
with the music itself inspiring homicidal impulses. It would be silly
to compare Nortavlaggh.377 to other Singaporean
bands like Impiety, Infernal Execrator, and Abhorer because honestly,
this project sounds nothing like those bands, except maybe
for the fact that they all exude a similar kind of war-like fury. It is
no secret that Singapore produces some pretty extreme bands, and
Nortavlaggh.377 just further confirms that fact. The vocals are
wartorn screams filled with hate, while the riffs crush wimps with
fast tremelo pickings and a black metal-like atmosphere. The
drums are fast and merciless,
befitting of the style.
Nortavlaggh.377
will satisfy black/death fans who appreciate fast, relentless and violent music, particularly those with an affinity for
bands like Diocletian, Witchrist, and Arkhon Infaustus. (HT)
