Black Funeral (USA) – Vampyr – Throne Of The Beast RED LP

Black Metal

From the frost-shrouded crypts of eternity emerges Black Funeral’s unholy testament, “Vampyr Throne of the Beast” – a glacial monument to the undead sovereigns who rule from shadows beyond mortal comprehension. This arcane opus channels the primordial darkness of castle keeps and moonless nights, where ancient bloodlines converge in blasphemous ritual. Released originally in 1995, “Vampyr…” is the debut album that established Black Funeral as one of the foundational bands in the American black metal scene.
Each track unfolds like parchment scrolls inscribed with forbidden knowledge, weaving tremolo-picked melodies that slice through the veil between worlds. The album’s frigid atmosphere conjures images of candlelit chambers where vampiric nobility hold court, their pale forms draped in medieval splendor as they preside over kingdoms of bone and shadow.
Raw, hypnotic passages cascade like winter winds through gothic spires, while ritualistic percussion echoes from stone halls where no mortal foot has tread for centuries. The production’s deliberate coldness preserves the necromantic essence – each note crystallized in ice, each vocal incantation rising from depths where daylight dare not venture.
“Vampyr Throne of the Beast” stands as a grimoire of black metal orthodoxy, summoning the spectral majesty of Europe’s darkest medieval legends. This is music for the witching hour, when the boundary between the living and the eternally damned grows thin, and ancient powers stir in their unhallowed thrones.
