Endezzma – Erotik Nekrosis (2013)

cover

Hailing from Norway, today we have the debut full-length release of the Black Metal horde named Endezzma. In “Erotik Nekrosis” the band delivers seven tracks of very engaging BM that will surely surprise people with their melodic passages and a few interestingly odd elements that make the songs quite enjoyable.

Opening with the very traditional “Junkyard Oblivion”, we immediately pictured another plain old-school BM release with that nasty sound that we all love. However, as the band pummels through the song, they suddenly deliver a very cool instrumental section that feels completely foreign to the overall structure of the song, and immediately make it 100 times more interesting. This vibe is again present on the Black’n’Roll-ish opening of “Enigma of the Sullen”, blowing away any preconception we had about how this album should go. This track also features a very cool atmospheric passage with even more appealing guitar work.

The band keeps their weird antics on tracks like “Against Them All”, “Swansong of a Giant”, and “Krossing Rubikon”, where they sound like a mixture of old Emperor with old Satyricon, old Enslaved, and the psychedelicness of older Borknagar. The band clearly showcases a great ability to switch between traditional BM riffing to Black’n’Roll riffs to crazy solos, something we didn’t quite expect from Endezzma. One of our favorite songs is the very atmospheric “Hollow” and its four minutes of perfect dissonance.

For a debut full-length release, “Erotik Nekrosis” is packed with surprises. If you like your Black Metal to combine a lot of elements but still sound grim as fuck, this is one release you can’t miss. Endezzma has a very unique style and we sure hope that fans of the genre appreciate it and we soon have the band releasing more albums like this one.
