1259 - Gorgoroth Incipit Satan 2000

In 1999, Gorgoroth began journeying into unknown territory with the recording of "Incipit Satan". Though mainly written by guitarist Infernus, the album delved into musical ideas not expanded upon by the group in previous recordings. The album was recorded during 1999, after drummer Vrolok and bassist T-Reaper had left the band and been replaced by drummer Erlend Erichsen (a.k.a. Sersjant) and bassist King ov Hell. Drummer Erlend Erichsen left the band after the recordings were finished The title track comes blasting through your ears with all the raw sounding heaviness you might expect from a “true Norwegian Black Metal” band. This is definitely the best track of the album everything here is Black Metal proficiency with the instruments and you can really appreciate Gaahl’s vocal.
