'Dark Thrones & Black Flags' was a continuation of the Darkthrone sound, style & uncompromising attitude witnessed on the acclaimed 2007 album 'F.O.A.D.' & taken to the next level.
'Dark Thrones & Black Flags' is equal parts Fenriz & Nocturno Culto, as the longstanding duo share song-writing & vocal duties throughout the release & further perfect the art of "the riff". A mastery of both composition & pure organic sound is
also evident for a celebrated album of stripped down, dirty metal.
Recorded & produced by the band themselves at Necrohell II studios, Norway, 'Dark Thrones & Black Flags' is an exercise in pushing the conventions of the narrow perception of what should make black metal, becoming more timeless & faithful to its spirit in the process.
