ravencult is a very good black metal band from greece!
Ravencult stands for traditional, old style Black Metal since their formation in mid-2001.
Originating from Athens, Greece, they have gradually developed their sound to become a crossing between the first and second wave of Black Metal.

Abominable Putridity - In The End Of Human Existence
|
Great album |
|
This album is great from start to finish. You will never get bored. Like Stuka said, they have some atmosphere. You will find that the songs on this album have a medium pace, but they throw in quite a few slams and grooves throughout the album. The gurgled vocals fit in perfectly with the rest of the music and just adds to the atmosphere and overall brutality of this incredible album. All in all, I recommend that you make an attempt to BUY this album - - you would not regret it. Oh, and one more thing; ignore my HORRIBLE review and just read Stuka's his is more to the point!

Entombed - Left Hand Path

Masterpiece of shwedish Death Metal |

This album is one of the first Death Metal albums made in Sweden.
Entombed, founded in 1989 out of Nihilist, are also the pioneers of the Sunlight Sound, named by the Sunlight Studio, which was used of a great number of following shwedish bands like Dismember and Carnage. Although their songs arent quite so sophisticated or melodic as those of bands nowadays, theyre still killing everything with their rudeness and primitive charism!
Every song on this album has its individual composition and not one of them sounds like the other. If you consider that this album was released in 1990, you can imagine how great it must have been to this time! I really love this release of Entmobed, even more than their ( also very nice ) second album Clandestine.
5/5 :]

Cyaegha - Steps Of Descent
|
A suprisingly talented upcoming metal band |
|
I'll admit that I am not exactly the most out-going person when it comes to metal, so I don't readily go off trying to find undiscovered gems for the sake of it, but that doesn't mean I won't respect something for what it is. Anyways, a friend of mine approached me with this album, claiming it to be the next big band.
"It's a technical band who plays death metal based on H.P. Lovecraft, and the guitar work (guitar and bass) is actually really good!", he said. Admittedly I was skeptical, but how can you not be with such a delivery? Countless times I been told that a band is amazing, yet they just didn't seem to pique my interest; I guess I have peculiar taste in music.
What I found when listening to this album, is that it reminded me a lot of bands I adore (Cryptopsy, Nile, Cephalic Carnage, Morbid Angel), and yet it didn't at the same time. Like my aforementioned pal had described, the musicianship was impressive--not groundbreaking, but interesting none-the-less-- while the drums and vocals provided an appropriate accompaniment for death metal.
During the albums spin, I took a gander at the albums cover/booklet --it's hard not to when the surface can nearly reflect light-- and it was very well-done. The remaining pages also looked very detailed and well-drawn. As I skimmed to the back pages of the booklet, I saw that the accomplished artist John Coulthart was responsible for the artwork --which explained the attention to detail.
Overall, I would say that this album is a above-average. Normally, I don't feel inclined to write a review on Amazon, but because this is the band's debut, I am making an exception. If you enjoy death metal you'll get your moneys worth from this album--even I still find myself listening to this album occasionally.

I don't have any idea of what happened with Cryptopsy. Some bands put new influences in their songs to make something different, which is not a bad think. But what Cryptopsy made was not this; they simply create a new fucking band. Extreme change in the band, in a bad way.
From respect to the old fans, the minimum that this band could have done was change its name, or finish with Cryptopsy and create another band. However it wasn't what happened and the result is this awfull album. Are this some comercial i$$ues talking higher? Seems like...
What surprises me most is that their last album (Once Was Not) wasn't bad at all. But this is an affront.
If you like older Cryptopsy, stay far away from this album.
