Nekrokrist SS is a Finnish black metal act from Finland, formed back in 2000 and they released their first demo in 2003. Their debut album, Suicide, followed in 2007. This cassette features 2 tracks from the bands 2003 debut demo and 5 tracks from their Divine Light 2006 demo. This early material from the band is really a manifesto of pure raw, dark, rotting and evil black metal. They do have a few melodic black metal riffs (a few) then its filled with desperate screams and depression. So it might sound like a basement tape, a bit amateurish and simplistic still its as brilliant as it possibly can be by virtue of just its riffs and the intensity of performance. There’s a certain point when ultra-primitive music simply can’t get any better because there’s only so much going on, and this is a good example of its upper limit; I have trouble imagining how these songs could possibly be any better when considering the overall vibe of the music. The music of Nekrokrist SS is nasty, brackish, and unfailingly honest and straightforward. It has to be heard to be believed and can’t be adequately put into words; suffice to say they’re some of the best in the suicidal black metal style and are a mandatory listen for anyone who’s involved in that scene.
