Bestia: Ronkade parved
16/11/09 || Kampfar
If you lay a ton of good will behind it, “ronkade parved” is how Norwegians say wanking pervert.
Bestia is not, and I hate to say this, an orchestra habituated by a bunch of imbeciles who should be shot the next time they pick up an instrument. By all means, music would have done excellent without their experimental folk-black, or whatever, so I wouldn’t exactly end up depressed if the whole band died in tragic accident yesterday. I’m not praying for so to happen, and if I owned a B-52 I wouldn’t waste bombs on their asses, but since they shipped their shit our way I’m about to drop a couple of words on them and their ill-named dish.
The main reason I chose to label this really rather standard take on black experimental is because here is saxophone. Heard often it is not, neither is the flute, and now you know why I had to inject or whatever when trying to describe the nature of their effort in the paragraph above. Mid-tempo and blasted passage draped in a half-raw black metal suit isn’t only closer to the truth, it is the truth, as “Ronkade parved” only sports the sax twice and the flute once. Other than that, twat, you get what I mentioned at the beginning of the last sentence.
It’s evident that the production isn’t taken care by a professional and the idiot responsible for shipping us a CD where 6 out of 10 songs fade out at exactly 2:02 isn’t one either.
Enough already.
