THRONEUM Morbid Death Tales CD

Released by the stalwarts of the Polish underground, Old Temple, the album Morbid Death Tales is the seventh full-length manifestation from the unrelenting Throneum. This release is a masterclass in Blackened Death Metal that refuses to acknowledge any trends of the last three decades, staying buried deep within the filth and shadows of the most primitive extreme metal traditions. The album is a relentless, 33-minute assault of ugly and abrasive metal, characterized by a production that is intentionally raw and cavernous. From the sprawling three-part opener "Darkness of Another Circle" to the final echoes of The Seventh Path, the music feels like a ritualistic descent into madness. The Great Executor’s vocals are particularly unhinged here, cutting through a dense wall of jagged riffs and battering, clattering drums that recall the bestial energy of early Mayhem, Sadistik Exekution, and Blasphemy. As an Old Temple release, this CD is an essential piece for collectors who value authenticity over technical polish. It captures Throneum at their most visceral, blending high-speed carnage with eerie, ritualistic atmospheres and doomed passages. It is a mandatory addition for anyone seeking the purest, most uncompromising sound of the Polish death/black metal scene.
