I'll be the first to comment. Your riffs are amazing. Really spirited rhythm playing. Love that one hammer on riff in the first one, its in the middle of.the tune. Killer playing. Production is a little too Transylvanian hungerish for me. A bit too raw but many will like that. I prefer a fuller or at least a wetter production especially in the drums and vox. You are definitely a killer player though, those riffs sound really challenging.

These guitar tones are amazingly clean for any kind of metal, let alone Blackened anything! Sounds like Dick Dale by way of Abdul Alhazred. Well done, dark one, well done indeed.
