Title: the first xian blackmetal release
Review: first of all, Anonymous took his name as a parody of Euronymous from the band Mayhem [basically the founder of 2nd wave blackmetal]. what we have here is the very first 'christian blackmetal' cd...this predates Antestor's blackmetal releases so when someone tries to tell you that Antestor was first ask them if they can tell the difference between black metal [what horde was playing] and doomdeath [what antestor was playing at the time]. originally this cd was released on Nuclear Blast and it ticked off all the satanists to no end ... of course this cd also tends to tick off ultra-fundamentalist christians as well, so at least Horde is equal opportunity in making people mad.the sound is comparable to earlier Darkthrone [not Soulside Journey] or "The Return..." era Bathory. if you like early 'trve, kvlt und grim' blackmetal and you arent one of those sticklers for satanic lyrics this is definitely an album you should check out.
