Crest of Darkness - In the Presence of Death (2013)

After 18 years and 6 releases that place the band at the top of the Extreme Metal genre, Norway’s masters CREST OF DARKNESS have come back with their most mature and intense release so far. "In The Presence Of Death" offers a devastating synergy of aggression and chilling sensations in a new journey through extreme music. The ferocious passages, the massive wall of guitars, the chainsaw bass, the demonic vocals, the fast drums are always interspersed with intelligent breaks and twists and very complex and technically demanding arrangements, making the whole an original musical vortex from which you can’t escape. Many say that we are living in a new golden age of metal, and this album provides the proof. It is not just Extreme Metal at its finest – it is the epitome of Extreme Metal and with “In The Presence Of Death” CREST OF DARKNESS prove that they know how to channel the essence of the genre!
