Horde - Hellig Usvart OPEN CD (Mortification, Paramaecium, Black Metal)

$16.99

 

The 10th Anniversary Edition CD from Soundmass has long been out-of-print. This 2019 25th Anniversary Edition includes a new updated layout and the bonus track “Mine Heart Doth Beseech Thee (O Master)” has been included. 

Hellig Usvart – the debut and only studio album recorded by Australian band Horde. Originally released in 1994 by Nuclear Blast, this album created controversy among black metal fans and allegedly saw death threats delivered to Nuclear Blast due to its anti-satanic lyrics. The sole member of the band, Jayson Sherlock, who used the pseudonym Anonymous, is best known as the drummer on the early and classic Mortification albums and later for joining doomsters Paramaecium. Norwegian for “holy unblack”, Hellig Usvart is considered a landmark release, regarded as the first and most ground-breaking Christian (un)black metal album.)

Playing all instruments, as well as handling production and mixing, Sherlock created an extreme album similar to early 1990s Norwegian black metal – cold, primitive, lo-fi. With brutal blast beats, furious buzzing guitars, ambient keyboards and intense shrieked vocalist, this is old-school. Raw and grim and having reached cult status, this classic is now readily available again!
