I love how when the vocals start they drown out everything else. As though they recorded a live performance in the basement, with one microphone between them. Right in front of the vocalist!

@@darkestdarker3726 Fimbulwinter - Servants of sorcery is actually 1993, and Samael worship Him is 1991, before Darkthrone's A Blaze in the Northern Sky
@@mistermister984 yes but they made a Black Metal release that started the 2nd wave in 1991 before A Blaze in the northern sky that had even fenriz quoting "Samael were on one of the bands that were feeding the black metal flame in a period when almost no one else did. Samael had a more occult feeling to it and definately weren't in any black thrash tradition and didn't really have a lot of death metal either. I think it's strange, people took the Mayhem/Darkthrone/Burzum road, I wonder why didn't more more bands take the Samael road, because that was definately interesting." And even Euronymous regretted not releasing the album, no need to be Norwegian to make Black Metal before Burzum and Darkthrone
@@l.i.v.v4835 Fenriz didn't even cite Samael as an influence to his music, perhaps they had moved on by 92-93. Samael while legitimate, is mostly Celtic Frost worship, it's for the best black metal explored more melodic and romantic themes and thus becoming more evocative as a result.
I don't think Enslaved has ever made a mediocre record, including the demo which is incredibly impressive for a band having 16! studio albums to date. Not to mention how old the guys were at the time.
Man, I bet this original demo on cassette tape is worth a small fortune. A true classic. Forest is my Throne is really good too. I used to have both on the Satyricon / Enslaved demo split CD that came out on Moonfog. I bought it at a Satyricon show in Minneapolis in 2003. Satyricon's keyboardist was working the merch table at the time. Not 100% on this but I think was the blonde girl from the Mother North music video
gorgoroth fue influenciado fuertemente por este album incluso cuando hicieron su primera aparicion en bergen en el 94 con Hat, ellos hicieron el cover de Heimdarll INCLUSO Grutle estuvo ahi y vio el cover en el bar con frost, infernus y el bajista, luego dimmu borgir fue influenciado por los sintetizadores de Enslaved; no se de donde dimmu saco el mourning palace con sonidos de Pizzcatos en el Teclado... Stian seguro escucho este demo
Gorgoroth were a legitimate and great band, they were friends with Enslaved and they're clearly inspired by them as latecomers to the scene but most of their music is highly unique. The Revelation of Doom link is tenuous, that's more of a typical proto-extreme riff. If anything Heimdallr was the inspiration for songs such as Huldrelokk.
@@andyzuleta5344 They're an amazing talent so anyone would want them but I don't think this means they're related to Burzum, unless Varg was acting as a sort of mentor.
@@sothis1448 I never heard or read anything about varg calling Enslaved a clone band. I still wonder what other bands would be signed or discovered in death like silence records .
@@andyzuleta5344 there are clips on RU-vid, he is very disparaging to other black metal bands generally, he claims Enslaved copied Burzum and Emperor copied Immortal and Darkthrone, not totally untrue but not fair either.
