Album Description
Available in:
"The Infernal Pathway" is the seventh studio album by Norwegian black metal band 1349, released on 18th October 2019 on the Season of Mist label.
User Album Review
The album opens in full power with “Abyssos Antithesis”, showing that they are still the leaders of the post-90’s Norwegian black metal scene. With strong blackened thrash elements, the song quickly grabs the listener into a twist of evilness worthy of the blasphemous genre. The album as a whole, in fact, is stacked with a thrash vibe to the point that I would call it a black/thrash album instead of a pure Norwegian black record.
Ethereal, almost secular parts are also present, notably in songs like instrumentals “Tunnel of Set VIII, IX and X” and the thunderous “Towers Upon Towers”. The mystical approach, combined with the already mentioned thrashier elements and some pure, raw black metal is an interesting mix that works well with the overall atmosphere.
The band seem to have reached what they wanted to do instrumental-wise in ‘Massive Cauldron of Chaos’ (2014) and have continued on the same path in ‘The Infernal Pathway’, so all in all what we have here is a more refined record in terms of songwriting and execution when compared to their last two. The Norwegian quartet has delivered a good slab of black/thrash without sounding too repetitive or making the same mistakes of ‘Revelations of the Black Flame’; while this won’t be making any top lists out there, it’s definitely worth checking out.
