Review by Sonny for Denial of God - The Hallow Mass (2019)

Overly long with songs that verge on overkill and yet, there is something magnetically engaging about the sheer enthusiasm with which these Danes suffuse their black metal. Melodic it most definitely is, wearing it's classic trad metal influence on it's sleeve, it is easy to tell these guys are compatriots of King Diamond. The vocals are some of the easiest to comprehend without a lyric sheet that I've ever heard in black metal and the music is equally as easy to get into - dense, dissonant and challenging this isn't, but will it get your head nodding or your foot tapping? Yes it probably will and I challenge you not to be won over by the sheer exuberance of tracks like the magnificent The Transylvanian Dream.
