Review from Asmodian coven _ 2011 (
ascoven.blogspot.fr/2011/09/susscrofa-dins-ech-cel-dastertia-demo.html)
Pagan metal today and another item which is not my rip; this one I found
in the internet, don't remember where it was but the person had the
whole thing as a single track so I separated it into what you see above.
Correction: I think it was
this.
Note that the cover (quite poor Metal Archives image) does not list any
separate intros, I decided to separate them as they didn't blend into
the tracks directly. If you don't like that decision, too bad. Note that
the band name is Susscrofa as single word, NOT Sus Scrofa as some
sources say. There is another band who use that spelling.
I don't know if the person who originally ripped this (Okkultis?)had an
original tape at hand or not, but the rip sounds ok. The demo sound
itself isn't that great but it's sufficient and everything can be heard
clearly enough. There are not glitches and errors either so good result.
Music itself is pagan black metal, melodic but not overtly so and with
some folk touches which are mostly subtle. One of the tracks, Ode a
Pyrene is sung by the band members a cappella, others use mostly the
ferocious snarl of the vocalist. A great demo, pity they did not make
more music. Well, some of the members apparently went on to form
Stille Volk but I'd have preferred they continued this. Recommended.
