Italian not-so-new-comers OLTRETOMBA (which translates to
‘underworld’), make their triumphant Moribund Debut with their second
full-length album, "THE HORROR
- Figure del
Terrore". Old school in sound & style, raw and aggressive, even
outright rocking (did someone say more cowbell?), OLTRETOMBA will have
every-one head banging to their phenomenal offerings! The most rocking, catchy
Black Metal since Craft or early Dark ThroneOLTRETOMBA
doesn’t stop there. Digging deep into the
stygian past, they also incorporate the primal brutality captured by Finland’s 1st wave
of Death Metal ala Demigod, Belial & Demilch!
OLTRETOMBA dispense diabolically
catchy riff after riff, perfect bass, sick vocals with Black Metal melody
accompanying deathly growls and a phenomenal drum performance which includes booming
thunder drums and more cowbell than Blue Oyster Cult and Dark Thronecombined! OLTRETOMBA also integrates flugelhorn bass, cello and other
classic instruments alongside precisely executed, backwards guitar scales.
OLTRETOMBA have honed their
style to perfection, culminating in one of the darkest, horror filled journeys
the Black / Death Metal scene has ever offered in its 30+ years! With no bells (outside of
percussion), no whistles (besides those of the Nameless Occultist), and nothing
plastic or pre-molded, OLTRETOMBA claim their well-secured seat at the
Pentagonal Table of the world-wide Metal scene! Worship OLTRETOMBA's diabolical "Retrogarde
Metal" !!
