Aura Noir
Black Thrash Attack
[Malicious]


10 songs 42:13. Retro stuff as the title attests to. Aura Noir preceded most of the rehash zombies so this may allow them the possible exemption of thyne wrath. Quite technical in its guitar work (done in a Mike from Destruction sort of way) handled by Blasphemer of Mayhem. Other members include Apollyon (Dodheimsgard) vocals on half the tracks and bass, drums when Aggressor (Carl-Michael from Ved Buens Ende) switches over. CD starts out quite well with Sons Of Hades and Conqueror(Awesome drum work) but starts to lose steam as they motor on. Low point is the inclusion of Caged Wrath which rips off a particular classic Venom riff. Shades of the pathetic Inferno? Nah but it will most assuredly annoy many. Not horrible but the ass-kicking Desaster are the way to go (more honest) if you want that old feeling.
