Aurora Borealis: Time, unveiled
24/03/03 || Lord K Philipson
“Maryland’s AURORA BOREALIS are definitely the brightest hope of the current death/black metal scene. The Americans are grand-masters at writing majestic and furiously fast songs, making them pretenders to Emperor’s throne. Aurora Borealis are led by Ron Vento (vocals/guitar/bass); however, drummer Derik Roddy has been making a name for himself with his thunderous work for Nile, Malevolent Creation and Hate Eternal. In other words: AURORA BOREALIS are a true elite band!”
That, fellow fuckers, is so much bullshit not even Billy Milano
comes close in a bullshitting-competition. What this is, ladies and
germs, is C-R-A-P, no matter if you turn the volume to zero, flip the
disc around, throw it at children, feed it to the dogs, paint it pink,
bite it, suck it, caress it or whatever comes to mind. This is more crap
than all the dumps I have taken thruout my entire 29 year life.
“Biggest hope of the current death/black metal scene”?
I must lie down and breathe… Someone at Diehard is deaf and needs to be
fired. Then again, I hope that Howboring Suckmyasses, those incompetent
wankers, made those lines themselves, coz no one can seriously mean
what was said. I´m scared… For the fact that some people actually
consider this worthy of releasing to the masses. Who in the holiest of
Virgin Mary-fucks buys this shit and likes it? It´s poorly played, it´s
one incredible lame production, the songs are…. SHIT!
There are only so many ways to insult a band and I have wasted too many lines already on these guys. There´s one thing if you don´t like the music-style, but I am a goddamn fucken black/death metal fan so I know quality from shit. This is embarrassing really. I have a few pointers to help them out. Hire 2 more guys who can play, let them hire 2 more guys who can play and write songs.. let those 4 guys fire you from the band and start over. No, that´s not enough, these new guys better change the name of the band coz this one is forever entangled in shit.
”...Drummer Derik Roddy has been making a name for himself with his thunderous work for Nile, Malevolent Creation and Hate Eternal.” Get the fuck out of here. And I thought Catamenia were bad at one point.
Shit is shit, no matter how many airfresheners you stick in it.
Rating: They got me severely pissed, that´s worth a 1.5/10
