### Gorthaur's Wrath: War for heaven

#### 21/09/13 || sincan

Gorthaur’s Wrath is something as unusual as a Croatian black/extreme metal band, where black should be looked upon as in the same manner as maybe Cradle of Feces or Dimmu Boromir is (mis)using the term. But the music itself does not sound as those bands and before I will go into that I have to go through something very important…

Extreme metal, EXTREME METAL, excrement metal.
Isn’t it rather interesting that this term is so incorrect when speaking about metal? I mean, extreme metal is the genre you will call something that isn’t heavy or fast enough to be called death, and it isn’t dark/evil/goat and filled with enough sulfur to be called black metal either. So it’s in easy English not brvtal (or extreme) enough to play in those genres’ leagues, therefore it must be called something else, EXTREME metal. I rest my penis in the dead hooker’s divine fungus cunt again.

No offence Gorthaur’s Wrath, the labelling is not your fault, so let’s talk about your music, shall we? Ok, here take this, what strikes me while listening to “War for heaven” is that it sounds kind of as Keep of Kalessin’s “Kolossus” but less epic, also some hints of later Behemoth is present, but not as good nor as heavy. It is rather easy listened metal which I think can attract a rather younger audience which is starting to taste the bitterness of harder metal compared to random core or goth fuckups. It can also attract, and yes you have all seen this guy (it is never a gürl), the one who never reached longer than Children of Bodom in his musical listening career, and he is proud of his metal life style by “listening to so different music compared to everyone else”.

In other words, this album is not so interesting for me, but the musicianship is rather competent and I can’t distinguish any weirdness (nor innovativeness) which some might expect from a band being from a relatively unknown metal country. One thing that strikes me is that the album is way too long, thus making the rather similar tracks just turn into some background fuzz after a couple of tracks

Oh, and Ross Feratu (guitars), is this a pun?
