In their formative years, Darkthrone initially started making their mark with a strong concoction of thrash \u0026amp; then death\/doom metal experimentation, before the debut album 'Soulside Journey' was unleashed in 1991. Never ones to follow convention or stand still even then, the band soon embraced a much darker, more primitive form of expression with the now iconic second album 'A Blaze in the Northern Sky', \u0026amp; the rest became history. \u003c\/p\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e Now the longstanding duo of Fenriz and Nocturno Culto return with their first studio album since 2016's hugely popular 'Arctic Thunder' opus, in the shape of 'Old Star'. With a mastery and endless dedication to the art of the riff, the Norwegian legends cut through 6 new epic tracks, taking in the best of the old school of heavy \u0026amp; extreme metal plus a large dose of doom-laden riffing, \u0026amp; channelling it through the grime of the underground. Engineering and production duties were all carried out by vocalist\/guitarist Nocturno Culto, complemented with a perfectly organic mix courtesy of Sanford Parker (Voivod) at Hypercube Studios, \u0026amp; mastered once more by Jack Control at Enormous Door. \u003c\/p\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e The stellar cover artistry comes courtesy of Chadwick St John, titled 'The Shepherd of the Deep'.
