Inconsequential - "Where Shadows Forever Reign" Review (0%)
Dark Funeral.
A "band" that exists solely for the purpose of making money off of gullible 12-year-olds who buy their pseudo-satanic act.
Other than that I really don't get the point of a shit album like Where Shadows Forever Reign.
I don't understand how this album is supposed to be different from the generic and commercial music played on Dark Funeral's shitty debut The Secrets of the Black Arts or any other diarrhea produced by Dark Funeral since then.
It's the same boring commercial crap.
There is literally nothing good, or even new, on Where Shadows Forever Reign.
Dark Funeral is the most criminally overrated band in black metal today.
Be it the lyrical content or the music itself, everything this band does comes off as being a parody of what the black metal scene really is.
Every time I listen to this shit band my contempt just grows more and more.
I have yet to see one hint of originality come from Dark Funeral, and their latest turd Where Shadows Forever Reign is no exception.
Despite going against my better judgment, I tried giving this band one last chance at redemption... but there is really no redeeming quality whatsoever to Where Shadows Forever Reign.
Inconsequential
Everything about Where Shadows Forever Reign is shit.
The vocals are shit.
The vocalist tries to do his best impression of Antekhrist but ends up sounding like a male rape victim on SSRIs.
Another thing that is wrong is the lyrics.
They are overly cliched lyrics about none other than Satan. In every song, it seems like the Dark Funeral vocalist goes out of his way to make a reference to "Satan", "Leviathan" or another meaningless Satanic name.
As another reviewer said, Dark Funeral just comes off like a joke band due to their shitty music and retarded lyric.
The guitars also suck major balls.
They do not offer anything new or innovative to the black metal world.
Calling the riffs generic and derivative is putting it very lightly.
Where Shadows Forever Reign is just a plethora of useless and forgettable riffs.
It sounds like Dark Funeral just copied and pasted riffs from various Norwegian black metal bands together and called it their own creation.
The bass does absolutely nothing either.
It just mixes in with the guitars to the point of inaudibility. What's the point of having a bass if it's gonna be mixed out of the final recording?
The drums are also shit.
Where Shadows Forever Reign sucks... there's really nothing else to say.
Avoid, or be bored to death.
Where Shadows Forever Reign score: 0/100.
