PARAMNESIA – PARAMNESIA LP (Les Acteurs De L’Ombre Productions)

A monkey could probably write this review. Paramnesia from France plays pretty much exactly the same strain of Black Metal made popular by US troupes Fell Voices and Ash Borer. Suffice to say, if you enjoy either of those two acts (and there is no reason in this god-awful world why you should not), then you will also appreciate this really impressive debut album.

‘Paramnesia’ comprises two swirling, epic 20-minute helpings of blistering, abrasive yet atmospheric and melodic Black Metal par excellence that shouldn’t really disappoint anyone. This record is also refreshingly cheap to purchase and looks the part (insert included) as well as sounding ace.

I can’t stress enough that it sounds exactly like the aforementioned American cousins. Which is a very good thing indeed. No point adding anything else.

Evilometer: 666/666
