The creation of the Salacious
Gods was in 1994, but originally as Profanatica. Their influences
include Old Tiamat, Samael, Sabbat, and Kreator and the band can
be considered atmospheric black metal. The band has gained some
experience by sharing the stage with bands like Altar, Liar of Golgotha,
God Dethroned, Ancient Rites and Enthroned. Their album titles are
phrases in a dialect that is spoken in the Northern part of The
Netherlands. The Salacious Gods latest album "Sunnevot"
means "The Sun is Gone" which makes sense for this dark
album. Overall its a pretty decent effort, they could have done
a little more with this disk, but I'm sure they will progress with
time. A few songs that have been singed onto my brain include "Twaeduster
Jacht" and "Testify My Vanity." "Prolongation..."
is a decent track as well. There are guest performances by Jens
from God Dethroned and Marco from The Wounded if you need a little
insentive to check out this band. Rating: 75 |
