Review by ZeroSymbolic7188 for Gorgoroth - Pentagram (1994)
I am going to create a sub-genre tag called "satan-slop" for shit like this; non-stop sloppy blast beats, intentionally irksome and stupid vocal delivery, anorexic guitar tones, and lyrical diversity that is nothing more than "I hate Christianity and worship Satan." There is an endless supply of this stuff within black metal. I don't need to describe it any further, anybody who wants this already knows what it is and where to find it.
I'm gonna tell ya a story about a young ZeroSymbolic. I was born into a farming family, my father ran the cattle operation, and my Uncle ran the pig operation. Now for the hog operation there was a shed up on a hill where the hogs were kept, and they basically do two things-eat and shit. Now all that shit runs down a sewage tube that empties out into a field, and over time it creates a big shit pond. That tube is the source of this variety of black metal. Some people love rolling in the shit, and I would never spoil their good time, but it's not a good time for me. Killing people and nailing naked women to crosses for shock value doesn't make in any better. Maybe if the music was good we wouldn't need such theatrics to bring attention to it?
