Review: Ordealis Records from France finally
released the long awaited debut of Perditor - which has
switched drummers since recording the 5-track mcd: Arvath
(of Black Art Magazine and Israthoum) joined in
after the recordings of this album. Those who have read
earlier reviews of Perditor from my hand, either on this
site or in a Black Art Magazine will know what I
am about to say. The compositions, production, the
artwork, and the feeling of this album are great and
traditional black metal; although there are definitely
hints of Sadistik Exekution and Slayer in here as well as
demented screams (alongside the 'safe' traces of Marduk
and Dark Funeral). The only pity is that 3 out of 5 songs
were already featured on the band’s demo’s -
I’d say pay a bit more attention to writing new
stuff - but that's really just a minor point. It remains
an excellent release from the Dutch underground, and a
promising preview of a full-length still to come.
