Description

The sixth recorded ritual of Stalen Gezicht stands as a ferocious document of their ever-mutating sonic assault. Rehearsal 02-03-2019 retains the band’s signature brand of violent and improvised Raw Black Metal, but with a production that—while still utterly filthy—offers a sharpened clarity to the madness.

The balance between raw aggression and eerie atmosphere is pushed further here, with tortured vocals cutting through layers of distortion-drenched riffing and relentlessly pounding drums. The increased definition in sound does not lessen the impact—rather, it allows the intricate decay of their craft to take shape before fully unraveling into the necrotic chaos of the following day’s infamous session. An essential slab of Dutch underground savagery, bridging the gap between structure and complete sonic annihilation.
