Agonia Records (2012)
Enthroned created a solid symphonic black metal album with no identity. They essentially sound like every other black metal band (Unlight, Dimmu Borgir, etc.); though while listening I did not get the urge to turn it off. I would recommend maybe two tracks out of 9 that stick, one is the second on the album, the other 6th reminds me of "Covenant" era Morbid Angel, particularly "Pain Divine" as well as Behemoth's magnum opus "Demigod".
If u eat up anything Black Metal you'll eat well, but since this genre is EXTREMELY hard to pull off and even harder to do it in a unique way I am both demanding and understanding here. Not everyone can be Emperor, Enslaved or Borgnagar. Deserves 3.5 but I bumped it up to 4 for really good "evil" production and overall catchiness for a black metal band.
