An obscure and occult Black / Death opus of the highest class is what German outfit ALCHEMYST(ger) deliver with their first album “Nekromanteion” which marks another proof for the fantastic Teutonic underground scene at the moment. The almost complete absence of hooklines, resulting in a more atmosphere than song-oriented record, the eerie and all-consuming dark aura of “Nekromanteion” is so utterly captivating that it remains the only thing we had to get accustomed to and the strong riffs and brilliant lead guitar melodies along with well varied tempo (from very doomy to violently hacking bestial beats) level out this minimal weakness and make sure each tracks sound compact and does not lack memorability.
What a great band!
