Album Notes

The long-awaited second full-length album by orthodox Nordic Black Metal veterans GOSFORTH from Northern Italy is now finally unleashed! Hot on the heels of the cult debut album "V.H.E.M.T." CD and the "Unholy Terror Union" split-EP with Finnish heavyweights AZAGHAL (both were released on Black Blood Productions), 2006's "HORNLUST" CD fulfills and maintains GOSFORTH's commitment to creating only true Black Metal of utterly morbid and obscure grimness. "HORNLUST" guarantees to surely satisfy diehard fanatics of DARKTHRONE, BURZUM, BATHORY, and CELTIC FROST by conjuring an unholy and unique blend of all the best and truest elements of those [aforementioned] hallowed masters, but without sounding like a stale clone; and thus GOSFORTH successfully and skillfully rise above the masses to raise the standard of pure old-school grim Black Metal-- the Devil's Noise! Comparable in the vein of standout contemporaries such as WATAIN, SETHERIAL, FROZEN SHADOWS, ONDSKAPT, etc. (August 2006). 7 Songs; 36 minutes total running-time.
