To Mega Therion (album)
''To Mega Therion'' is the second studio album by Swiss extreme metal band Celtic Frost, released in October 1985 through Noise Records. The cover artwork is a painting by H. R. Giger titled ''Satan I''. "To Mega Therion" translates to ''the great beast'' in Greek. It is an expression found in the Bible but was also a nickname used by Aleister Crowley. The album was highly influential on death metal and black metal, and some consider it to be one of the best albums of the 1980s. Music Sam Sodomsky of ''Pitchfork'' said ''To Mega Therion'' "spread apocalyptic visions over ungodly, vicious thrash metal." He further explained: "As subgenres began to harden into unified aesthetics, this music could not be pinned down: French horns, droning keyboards, and constantly shifting song structures assured that even the most devoted metalheads had never heard anything quite like it." The album's horn sections have been described as "Wagnerian". Reception Ned Raggett in his review ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Into The Pandemonium
''Into the Pandemonium'' is the third studio album by Swiss extreme metal band Celtic Frost, released on 1 June 1987 through Noise Records in Europe, and through Combat Records in the US. The album marks the return of bassist and backing vocalist Martin Eric Ain, who had previously appeared on 1984's '' Morbid Tales'', but not on the band's previous album. The album furthers Celtic Frost's experimental bent, with unlikely covers choices (Wall of Voodoo's " Mexican Radio"), industrial-tinged tracks ("One In their Pride") and gothic rock tendencies. The already traditional Frost-styled orchestral flourishes with female vocals are also present. Initially met with mixed reviews, ''Into the Pandemoniums acceptance quickly grew and it became the band's most successful record. The album also marked the end of their tenure with Noise Records. A costly legal battle with the label ensued, due to accusations by the band that Noise sabotaged the album's promotion. Production The rehe ...
