AVULSED -BLOODCOVERED
This sounds like its recorded direct to a boombox. When i first heard the cover of Number Of The Beast, it made me immediately think of one of those joke covers Anal Cunt used to do. (RIP SETH)
With the gurgling vomiting demon/Poor mans 'Tomb of the Mutilated' vocals that make you think of that old movie Ghoulies...But then they shred out the solo and the way the frenzied headbanging heavy metal shredding in the solo burns through the lofi mess showcases the respect and admiration Iron Maiden deserve.
Avulsed also butcher Piranha,Ace of Spades, and Edible Autopsy... But as far as Iron Maiden covers go, Avulsed cant fuck with Kreator's cover of Number Of The Beast.

Deep guttural howling vocals carve out their presence on the flesh of cavernous unholy primitive-as-fuck black metal . Imagine some goregrind freaks starting a Beherit tribute band.
Echo chamber in a lower circle of hell effects over the whole thing. Then you have the other standout track the lofi anthem 'Satan Rapes God'. Brutally over the top evil lyrics you can singalong and raise the horns to. You don't see very many acts attacking different religions like this. In addition to 'Sexual desecration of Islamic Faith' you also have 'Masturbation on Jehova's Altar'.
SARGEIST- REBIRTH OF A CURSED EXISTENCE
Great album. The main riff to Dark Embrace sounds like Burzum covering the intros Iron Maiden's Wasted Years/Flash of the Blade,bridged with some epic sweeping tremolo patterns and a couple short bludgeoning breakdowns. Crown of Burning Stars starts out with a 'Dunkelheit' by way of the intro to 'Evil that Men Do' ,dual guitar arpeggio before going into sweeps& blast beat driven brutality. The vocals on this are straight up evil and demonic Transylvanian Hunger styled with some slight Wings of Funeral phrasing and dynamics. You can hear a lot of torment and rage in the vocals. They're done with force. No turning up the volume on a contact mic and whisper growl into the mic so you don't have to yell loud and hurt you throat laziness or Abandoned by Light/Chip King camp going on at all. High register, trebly raw production that some would say sounds like a demo . The minimal production values heighten the overall atmosphere of cold soulless evil that haunts this recording.
Sargeist manages to have distinguishable riffs and powerful vocals while retaining an almost 1980s Black Mark production throughout.

TAAKE-NOREGS VAAPEN
Taake rules. This has a more big-budget production then his other work. Slightly more technical & noodling. There's no stop/start jazzy later Mayhem/Deathspell Omega moments disrupting the momentum.The track Du Ville has some straight-up AC/DC shit going on in it..The vocals still peak into shrill clipping howls with speaker distortion.
Only major issue i have with it is theirs some weird shit on this record that's incongruous with his image. Myr is a great fucking brutal track, but then he pulls out a fucking banjo and shreds out a banjo solo in the middle of some blast beats. But that's all that fucking needs to be said about Taake. Taake is the only one evil and talented enough to be able to put a banjo solo in the middle of a track and layer banjos beneath some of the other songs and still have a great album of kvlt black metal. Its the best use of banjos iv heard on an extreme metal record since Spazz vs Mother Nature&Gruesome Stuff Relish's They Follow Your Scent.
(If you dont own any Spazz or G.S.R. records, go buy some & listen on repeat until you hear Satan calling you then blow half your face off with a shotgun so you look like that popeye motherfucker that took Judas Priest to court and was interviewed in Traces of Death..If you survive you'll look more metal then Jeff Beccra does during Possessed reunions... Plus with half your face blown off its easier to do sick vomiting death growl/gore grind vocals & you save money on corpsepaint & if you die, so what? Hell Awaits!)
