CREST OF DARKNESS moved the barriers again with “The God Of Flesh”, the new full-length album from the Norwegian Black Metal veterans, and present the heaviest, darkest and most personal album of their career. “The God Of Flesh” is a new classic of a band marked by an integrity and a personality that is hard to come by. Now they have reached the point: this is the evil, this is the beast, this is the dead.
"Blood On Canvas" is the most ferocious album to date from the thrashers Darkness from Essen, Germany.
The songs are more aggressive and heavier than anything else in the Darkness discography to date. Although it is not a concept album, "Blood On Canvas" is not a mere collection of nine songs created in one period, but a multi-faceted sound painting, painted with the colors of wrath. Musically, Darkness deliver the uncompromising and fast thrash metal they have been known for since their debut album "Death Squad" (1987). However, the compositions on this album are more complex and detailed than usual, without losing any of the aggression, heaviness and authenticity. The lyrics are no longer just a description of the madness that determines the course of this world, but get to the heart of the matter in a straightforward and uncompromising manner.
