Darkthrone began life in the late 80’s as a thrash/death metal act and progressed through technical death/doom metal experimentation to become legends of the black metal world. They were one of the original leading bands of the Norwegian scene, as well as inspiring a whole generation of metal bands.

 

‘The Underground Resistance’ was another stellar venture through the metal cosmos, and contains Darkthrone’s trademark masterful riffing in a broad range of styles, effortlessly bounding through the annals of classic metal, taking in thrash and black metal, and not forgetting a dose of Punk. Overall, a ferocious and dynamic set of tracks drenched in Fenriz’s & Nocturno’s rich and diverse tastes in all things metal, primarily those rooted firmly in the spirit of the 80’s. 6 tracks long, and every one an epic in itself, this was undoubtedly among Darkthrone’s strongest material of the decade.
