Blacksters from all over the word will be happy to know that Darkthrone are working on a new album that is allegedly “half finished”. Fenriz has made a statement on the band’s official Facebook, according to which they are recording at their old studio; the statement also contains a few cues to what the album will sound like. The statement reads like that:
“YES we have half way finished our new album. YES we have our old rehearsal place back (recorded there: Snowfall/a new dimension demo + thulcandra demo). Our style this time is as usual from Ted, stern heavy/black metal. Personally i changed the style from speed metal before to SLOW HEAVY METAL, and i have four albums representing that: first DREAM DEATH album, BLACK SABBATH mob rules, first CANDLEMASS album and second SACRILEGE album. Ted will sing on the entire album and that was a desicion made by me after hearing the ANGUISH "mountain" album from last year. What am i listening to right now? the vinyl of mercenary by BOLT THROWER. YES it has annoying bass drum sound, but all the riffs are great. – f e n r i z”
Well, it seems that Ted is responsible for the composition and the sound and direction of the album, stern heavy/black metal , but Fenriz claims to have changed to a slow metal style. We will see what we should expect from them.
