Black Metal stands as one of the legendary metal albums of all time. An unprecedented example of sonic excess applied to the lowest fidelity recording available (or even imaginable). The album wielded its satanic subject matter and uncontrolled speed like a weapon against all that was considered tasteful and refined in music. A true Frankenstein's Monster. A must album for any fan of Thrash, Death and Black Metal and you just cannot have a complete Metal collection without this LP as well as their debut.
