The band has recorded and produced the whole affair themselves and according to the info this is just about what the world needs, let\u00b4s find out!<\/p>\n<p>Five tracks are on offer, including an intro. \u201cHar Megiddo\/Satan\u00b4s Storm\u201d is a pretty entertaining and varied intro with a lot of atmosphere, not bad! The title track is a quite thrashy piece, with less black metal in it than the band member\u00b4s stage names hint at. The riff is fat and I think it\u00b4s an example of a possible new path for the somewhat stagnant Norwegian black metal scene. The same goes for the final track, \u201cAltar of Mahakali\u201d. The track has a lot of doom light at a higher pace in it, the most blackish part may well be the incredibly atmospheric wind sound at the end. There is a lot of groove sin the music, and the biggest surprise is probably the rather dull PENTAGRAM cover, \u201cThe Malefice\u201d. All in all DEAD TO THIS WORLD has proven worthy of more future releases, maybe even of becoming forerunners in the Norwegian genre? <\/p>\n<p>Track List<br \/>\nHar Megiddo\/Satan\u00b4s Storm<br \/>\nSacrifice<br \/>\nDeath Courageous<br \/>\nThe Malefice (PENTAGRAM Cover)<br \/>\nAltar of Mahakali<\/p>\n<p>www.soulsellerrecords.com www.myspace.com\/deadtothisworld <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Soulseller Records\/Sound Pollution When Iscariah left IMMORTAL in 2002 he formed DEAD TO THIS WORLD.
