Description

Dutch pressed music cassette. Black cassette with grey text.

After releasing the stunning debut The Nocturnal Silence the band went into an uneasy silence, bridged with a single featuring a new track Spawned By Evil, complete with some cool cover songs. David Parland (aka Blackmoon) was busy with Dark Funeral but returned albeit briefly, to contribute to the Necrophobic cause. Parland was not to stay with Necrophobic and although he highly disapproved of the production of Darkside (what the hell happened to the bass) musically speaking it was a nicely crafted piece of melodic and aggressive black-death that he contributed a lot too. Packed with trademark Necrophobic aggression it remains a mystery why this band appeared to fall off the radar after their critically acclaimed debut. Darkside heralds the beginning of Tobias Sidegards role as vocalist, filling the big shoes Anders Strokirk left behind – Tobias proving to have an equally intimidating aural posture with his acid snarl and at times gruff, deathlike growls. Darkside reportedly said to be recorded between an eclipse of the moon and of the sun at Sunlight Studios; it was also destined to be the closing chapter of Mr. Parlands involvement with Necrophobic, the opening track marked ironically with the lyrics I see the Black moon rising. In short, Necrophobic have opted for a harsher sound than their debut; replacing the thick, warm guitars with icy tones placing it in a more black metal looking box but its still classic Necrophobic if you already like them you wont be too disappointed – a little faster all round than their previous effort and a touch more black.
