BLACKDEATH "Fucking Fullmoon Foundation"


BlackDeath goes rawer compared to their debut and the result haven’t impressed me, "Fucking Fullmoon..." is a dirty, filthy album, but it haven’t the sick atmosphere of today cult acts like Shining, Craft. With this release BlackDeath have left the more aggressive side of their music to create a primitive and regressive form, sometimes connected with the ’80 atmosphere.
Personally I think that this album haven’t what I search on a release like that, it haven’t that obscure emphasis and the right mood, someone will think that it’s all a matter of personal taste and it could be but there’s something missed because the objective that this Russian band have tried to reach is not at all accomplished, fortunately there are some valuable songs like the fifth and the sixth, where the overall level is higher ‘cause of a more compact songwriting. The rhythmic side of this band  isn’t surely its better weapon, but it would be something promising if that band will try in the future to mix their primitive and filthy side with the more authoritarian mood that sometimes come to the attention. In the last song the Scandinavian phantom come back and the result is a very interesting closing track, alas with the same drum machine that I haven’t like too much in the overall album.
