Obtained Enslavement – Soulblight CD

Obtained Enslavement – Soulblight

The 1998 Norwegian Black Metal classic ‘Soulblight’ re-issued! “Soulblight” is a worthy contender for one of the best Black Metal albums of the 90’s! 1997’s “Witchcraft” wass a challenging album to follow up with its cult status as one of the greatest Black Metal releases owing to its complex compositions and intricate orchestration. Yet Obtained Enslavement did exactly that, as “Soulblight” is a very different release but it maintained the quality and musicianship the band made themselves known for with “Witchcraft”. This release discards the openness and mystique of the orchestral arrangements in place of a more guitar and drum-oriented sound, but this works for the much darker and aggressive tone of “Soulblight”. Recorded at Grieghallen Studio by Pytten (a.o. Emperor, Immortal, Burzum, Mayhem, Gorgoroth). Vocals by the legendary Pest (Gorgoroth).
