IMPALED NAZARENE - Tol Cormpt Norz Norz Norz LP (MARBLE)

Finland is a country that has spawned some rather unique bands, over the years. In the early-to-mid '90s, there was a certain gloom that permeated most of the underground releases from this land. From the chaotic and evil black metal of Beherit and Archgoat to the epic and sombre death metal of Amorphis and Sentenced, on to the agonizing funeral doom of Thergothon and Skepticism, Finland was a breeding ground for dark music of all kinds. The debut record from Impaled Nazarene was no different. Following up on a handful of demos and an E.P. of terribly short length, these Finns managed to take various influences and work them into a maniacal sound all their own, creating something blasphemous and dark that still holds up two decades later.
