Review
“Death Before Dishonour” is Goatmoon’s debut full-length album and showcases a raw, aggressive sound that is characteristic of the black metal genre. The album features low-fi production that lends an atmosphere of darkness and mystique to the music. With influences from both traditional black metal and folk music, the record presents a blend of fast, tremolo-picked guitar riffs, blast beats, and raspy, shrieking vocals, interspersed with melodic acoustic passages and the occasional use of keyboards.
Thematically, the album’s lyrics revolve around nationalism, war, and honor. These themes have been controversial, leading to the band being associated with the National Socialist Black Metal (NSBM) movement. Listeners should be aware of the potentially divisive content and consider their own personal values when approaching this album.
Critics and fans of black metal have praised “Death Before Dishonour” for its raw sound and the incorporation of folk elements, which lend a unique and atmospheric quality to the music. However, some detractors argue that the album’s controversial themes detract from its artistic merit.
In summary, Goatmoon’s “Death Before Dishonour” is a raw and atmospheric black metal album that showcases the band’s blending of black metal and folk influences. While the album’s themes and lyrical content may be controversial, the record has garnered a following within the black metal community for its unique sound and approach. Listener discretion is advised due to the potentially divisive content.
