Doom Cult Full-length, 2009
The Diocletian doom cult arose in 2004 to deliver the hammer blow to the stagnant and weakened underground.
In an age when the emphasis on violent, crushing, brutal Metal is all but lost in the underground, Diocletian bring back force and will.
This album raises the bar for feral, raw, impure, undiluted, bestial hate & ferocity. Clocking in at 33 mins 33 seconds, ‘Doom Cult’ is a slab of concrete dropped on your fucking head from a height.N-am avut prea multa vreme pentru noutati, in ultima perioada, dar materialul acesta mi-a atras atentia. Principalul motiv ar fi ca-mi aduc aminte de atmosfera sumbra si maniera de executie a suedezilor de la Runemagick, trupa care-mi place enorm de mult. Daca citesti genul, mai sus, dupa ce asculti Doom Cult, ai sa observi ca acel doom nu e intamplator in titlul albumului, chiar daca nu se refera tocmai direct la doom metal, iar cei de la metal-archives il omit in descrierea respectiva. Deoarece, pentru cine cunoaste Runemagick si chiar ii place, Diocletian este o varianta mai agresiva si mai black a suedezilor. Si ma gandesc cum ai face un sandwich cu Enter the Realm of Death (sau The Supreme Force of Eternity, dupa gustul gurmandului) si Dawn of the End, unde la mijloc ai plasa raw black dupa gust.
Eu am savurat acest sandwich cu mare placere, ceea ce va recomand si voua. Sau pe alta limba, albumul unde doom-ul, black-ul si death-ul se intalnesc si se contopesc intr-un material excelent.
