Today, legendary Finnish black metallers Barathrum stream the entirety of their highly anticipated tenth album, Überkill. Set for international release on October 11th via Hammer of Hate, hear Barathrum's Überkill in its entirety HERE.
Alas, seven years pass, but the Barathrum sound & vision are eternal, and they return to prove it once again with Überkill. Here, previous-bassist / now-guitarist Ruttokieli (also mainman of Sielunvihollinen and White Rune) composed all but one of the songs on this, amazingly the band's tenth album; drummer Vendetta makes his composition debut with the telltale, scene-setting opener "Death by Steel." As always, founding frontman Demonos Sova wrote all the lyrics, and his signature full-throated rasp leads with devilish glee these alternately stomping / surging anthems, all with equally telltale titles like "Mountain of Bones," "Dark Sorceress 3 (Spring Siege)," "Black Magick Rites," and perhaps best of all, "Spark Plugs of Purgatory." And yet, for as much as Barathrum are very much (still) a pure & proud black metal band, Überkill proves that the Finns are, above all, a very great heavy metal band - just one that's jet-black, asskicking, and bass-driven as fuck. Simple-yet-sublime pleasures, now and forever: again, Barathrum are eternal!
