Free Music Notes for Destroyer
Free Music Review: Good, but not my favorite Gorgoroth.
Hit: 4 Stars
One thing you can count on when putting on Destroyer is that it will wake you up. I've considered buying an alarm clock that plays music just to I could put the beginning of the title track on it to get my butt out of bed in the morning; it's just a lot of noise and screaming before, at about 30 seconds in, it becomes recognizable as a song. This is also the only track that Gaahl does the vocals for here, and he uses his brief appearance well.
"Open the Gates" is one of my favorite Gorgoroth songs ever. I probably say that about too many songs, but I mean it here. This, and a few songs on Under the Sign of Hell, especially, are the reason I think Pest is so awesome. The scream at 2:46 is just about the coolest thing I've ever heard. The guitars have always stood out for me as particularly excellent in this song also. They're quite fuzzy but there are some interesting melodies going on. The production is not exactly great but it doesn't really bother me at all here.
The sound effect on "The Devil, the Sinner and his Journey" strike me as somewhat goofy. T. Reaper does the vocals on this, which are interesting, but just sort of add to how chaotic and disjointed this album feels. It starts off really well, and they're nothing here I dislike, but it just doesn't feel like a coherent whole in the way that other Gorgoroth albums do. The fact of having four different vocalists on only a handful of songs doesn't help matters in this sense. I like all the songs though, especially the first two and "The Virginborn," which is slower and manages to be awesome for over 8 minutes. And have I mentioned yet in this paragraph how much I love Pest's vocals? I can't say anything really bad about this album, I like it, but it just doesn't feel cohesive to me as a whole, which is probably why I don't listen to it very often. Still, I don't think you can go wrong with any of Gorgoroth's albums, and it is definitely a worthwhile purchase, even if I like their other albums better.
