Behexen - My Soul for His Glory

Posted on Sunday, September 05, 2010

Primal Black Metal with a vast array of weapons. “Born in the Serpent of the Abyss” begins with the maniacal hacking and slashing of old Blasphemy, but by song’s end transforms into near shoegazing territory. Other tracks have a strong early Bathory influence, while some have an almost Dissection-like mastery of melodies. It’s a beautiful thing when bands can run the gamut from homicidal to suicidal, and although I can’t quite put my finger on what Behexen is missing, if they ever put it all together they could be unstoppable. As is, still quite a mesmerizing, multifaceted atmospheric journey.
