NECROCHAKAL - Golgothian Orgies of Bestial Lust review


 

NECROCHAKAL - Golgothian Orgies of Bestial Lust

Floga Records


First off I like the album cover art. The song titles are funny in a debauchees way. Musically it's blackened thrash and more on that later. But the band photo provided is pretty fuckin bad. And you know what maybe it's bad in a deliberate way. Sure I'll go out on that limb only because I'm crazy sometimes. But in all seriousness you two guys look like a bad Halloween costume picture.


Now with that out of the way here we have the debut full length from NECROCHAKAL. They're actually a three piece Blackened Thrash act from the great nation of Greece who have been around putting their cloven hooves on people's faces since 2012. The early part of their career consisted of various short form releases. If you interested and don't want to search so far then there's a compilation titled The Early Black Sacrifices which came out on CD in 2023 on Tribulacion Productions. 


Now as far as this thing goes the band clearly states that musically they're into Teutonic Thrash and late 80's Brazilian Extreme Metal. So think SODOM, DESTRUCTION, SARCOFAGO and MYSTIFIER all rolled into one savage bestial punch to your fucking face. Plus they're fuckin Greek as well and I do hear a touch of Hellenic BM on a song or two. 


So you have nine tracks that pretty much are all about their ferocious hatred towards well you can figure it out because it's easy by now. With that said NECROCHAKAL are a damm cool sounding band. They're giving an update to a sound which is three decades old. But they're keeping it original while also making it sound somewhat fresh. Seriously why would you ever put in a acoustic piece like "Thanatopsis" trying to be all SABBATH which kinda sucks?  It's because you're Black Fuckin Metal and you follow it up with "Son of Loss Judas Goat". So yeah this full length is a winner.
