Biography
Dark Domination’s 2001 debut ‘Blasphemy’ was a something of a rough diamond; despite being 70 odd minutes long it had a distinctly demo-like feel to it, due to its home recorded sound, drum machine and cheap keyboards it greatly reminded me greatly of ‘Wrath of the Tyrant’ era Emperor and the first Immortal LP. However, with this new CD Dark Domination are not relying on the listeners nostalgia for the early 90’s Norwegian sound, since ‘Let Satan Speak Through our Lips’ is a different proposition altogether. The style here is primarily fast black metal, approximately how Dark Funeral played it on ‘Vobiscum Sathanas’, except Dark Domination have a better eye for dynamics and atmospherics than any of those Swedish bands. The sinister introduction ‘Beyond the Gates of Hell’ rumbles menacingly in a background for what seems like an aeon, until without warning ‘Hordes of the Godless’ slams into you like a freight train heading at 666mph out of Hell, with rapid fire blast beats and tremolo picked guitar riffs that curdle the blood. ‘Under the Emperor’s Wings’ steams out of the speakers after a short intermezzo, with similar ferocity to its predecessor, but the acoustic sections and haunting backing vocals give this track an extra dimension. And so the album continues, alternating breakneck speed with sombre interludes is a refreshing approach to the genre and the tension that is generated between each song is amazing.
