Samael
Worship Him
[Osmose]


This is one hell of a black metal classic, in fact I do believe Osmose used to promote it with it being the first black metal album released in the nineties. For some odd reason Samael never seemed to get their well deserved recognition back then, as they were not of Norwegian decent. This is without a doubt one of the most sinister albums ever put out, the foul stench of a dark, vile, hatred that is so omnipresent on this album, can surely inspire a man to commit many an action deemed unacceptable by society, the sonic anger this brings forth surpasses most of what was created under the banner of black metal in the early nineties, and that with keeping their almost exclusive mid tempo pace. Close your eyes and let this album put you into a trance of death, pain, suffering and pure homicidal rage. The spirit that this album was forged by is so abundant, that it almost oozes out of the speakers. And what is left to say? Nothing!
