Sangus - Saevitia

9/3/2015

Usually I tend to give all 'blackened' stuff to Björn, but I wanted to keep this one for myself.  Why? Well, this release is pretty different from a lot of black metal releases I've heard in a while.  In stead of referring to the Scandinavian wave or the most recent 'post-metal' variation of the genre, Sangus has spawn something extremely old-school and disturbing.  By incorporating a mix of punk, thrash and crust, these Americans take us back to the furious days of Marduk, Sacrophago or Satanic Warmaster.

Saevitia is an e.p., constisting of five songs.  Only one of them, 'Ossos: SSS', is longer than three minutes.  However, this is a harsh noise track, resembling a loathsome vision of battlefield after a short but intense war. The rest of the songs are short outbreaks of nihilism, misantrophy and disgust, played with an overdose of energy and intensity.  Fast riffing, blast-beats and screams create one of the most vile things I've heard in a while.  It's this mix between black metal and punk that makes it interesting to me, short and powerfull, perfect for a blitzkrieg.

This e.p. is the follow-up for their 2013 tape-release "Vengeful Brutality".  It is available on 7" and as a digital download. I can only recommend every fan of old-school black metal to check this one out.  This stuff has the same level of discordance and malice as the inventors of this notorious genre portrayed.  Personally, I can't really get enough of this.  Awesome stuff...
