Darkthrone - Panzerfaust

2CD EDITION OF THE CLASSIC ALBUM � NOW ON PEACEVILLE�Panzerfaust�, Darkthrone�s fifth album was originally released in 1995 on the Norwegian label, Moonfog (the label previously owned by Satyr of Satyricon). The album was recorded similarly to their previous release, �Transilvanian Hunger�, in that it was written and recorded solely by Fenriz at his home �Necrohell� studio, with Nocturno Culto later adding vocals.�Panzerfaust� was largely inspired by the works of Celtic Frost, a long time favourite of the Darkthrone guys, and also includes a couple of fast songs in the Bathory style, a follow-on to the faster tempo of the tracks featured on �Transilvanian Hunger�. �Panzerfaust� is also notable for including some of the most raw and primal vocals in black metal - completely well suited to the music on display and the misanthropic nature of the band at the time. With its feast of Frost-fuelled riffing, �Panzerfaust� is rightly hailed one of THE classic Darkthrone black metal albums. It also features lyrics written by Varg Vikernes of Burzum.This edition of Panzerfaust includes a special bonus commentary disc recorded by Fenriz himself, as he gives a personal insight into the background to the album and his inspirations for particular riffs and songs, and unconventional recording methods.
