FROM DARKTHRONE:
The intended second album of technical death/doom metal from the Norwegian legends in its original form on CD & LP - you can pre-order here:
https://darkthrone.lnk.to/goatlord‘Goatlord’ was the title of what was to originally be Darkthrone’s second album. The style followed very much in the vein of debut, ‘Soulside Journey’, with a mid-paced melodic, yet technical, death metal style.
After the full completion of the tracks, however, focus shifted towards black metal and a more primitive style of composition & so the album was shelved, while work commenced on what was to be a black metal milestone, ‘A Blaze in the Northern Sky’, which incorporated some parts from the ‘Goatlord’ tracks.
‘Goatlord: Original’ contains these cult tracks in their original instrumental form, recorded in the band’s rehearsal space (vocals were added in the mid-90’s before an official release came through Moonfog Productions in 1996), with the classic line-up of Gylve ‘Fenris’ Nagell on drums, Ted Skjellum on lead guitar, Ivar Enger on Rhythm guitar, and Dag Nilsen on bass.
