Review:
What? A combination of Black Metal and Hardcore? Is this even possible? At least that's what Dannish Demersal are trying to produce here and I have to be honest and admit I was pretty suspicious before giving it a spin. But I had a blast giving it a few listens, it's actually based in Black Metal (a few riffs and rhythms are dark and evil a la Black Metal scene) and Hardcore (there are plenty of groovy rhythms and there's also that raw, violent energy from Hardcore), but it's developed towards the Post scene of nowadays, with both Post Black Metal and Post Hardcore elements and I guess the screams come straight from a Metalcore background, so it's way different than I initially thought it would be, but it's definitely interesting, I'd better label it as Blackened Post Hardcore, give it a spin even if only to listen to something new, you might have a surprise like I had.
