Szron
Frost Eternal

"Frost Eternal" is the demo released by "Under the Sign of Garazel Records", which features the name of the Polish band "Szron", and has been limited to 250 copies. These 33:58 minutes comprising 6 tracks, including a bonus, have the sound of an aggressive Black Metal, based on prolonged and obsessive screams, with a recording (I think on purpose) that is not perfect, with guitar and bass distorted and dirty to the extreme and a slow drum.

Starting from the cold and harrowing "Soil Enriched By Blood" the tracks flow through the fantastic "Lycanthropiac", an excellent and dark "Wintry Misanthropy", continuing with the somewhat less successful "New Rising Sun" and "Coldness Supreme", which in their own way are good, but compared to the others lose points, up to the bonus track "Gascleansed" which closes all well.

Certainly, it is a demo that can be relatively pleasing: some will love it, and others will struggle to listen to it: I find it good and above all well achieved compared to the initial intent, which is to convey a certain sense of discomfort to the listener; in any case, being this their second demo, it seems to me that they deserve attention.
