farts from hell, lighting the place up

this is a transfer from the white vinyl version.

Thralldom were a side project of ryan from unearthly trance, a new york blackened doom band. the simple description is that Thralldom dispenses with the doom and goes for straight black metal in an early darkthrone or hellhammer/celtic frost vein, but that hardly does it justice. you get the same hateful vocals and visceral guitar sound UT is known for, throw in noise elements and so-crazy-it-works early bathory style guitar solos, and finally add a frenetic pace that never seems to relent, even when hitting a more mid-paced stride. definitely worthy BM from a sadly defunct band, though ryan has a newer project called the Howling Wind that treads similar territory with equal panache.
