Review by KosieKat for Dødheimsgard - 666 International (1999)

I liked this. It was kinda weird. I'd never listened to  Dodheimsgard before this and so I had to do my research while I was listening to find this was thier first foray into industrial/avant-garde type music while being only black metal before this, and while I have not at this point listened to their earlier stuff, I'm going to guess that was a good move. I am quite the enjoyer of what what some may call 'noise' music and so this had enough elements of that to tickle my fancy. While some songs went on a bit long ( and could have had a greater impact i think slightly shorter) Shiva Interfere, Carpet Bombing, and Completion were all lovely listens and with my research the glazing of  thier most recent album by others online, Black Medium Current,  landed it on my list to check out to see if they further developed thier industrial sound that they delved into on this album here. While many songs may seem disjointed both sonically and theme ( my husband asked my multiple times if I was listening to the same album from across the room throughout not believeing I was as it kept shifting so drastically if that is any indication of the tonal changes) - I really like that kind of change up and will check out more of thiei work to see if they polished this (lack of) formula.
