Summoning

Epic black metal band Summoning are readying their new LP, Old Mornings Dawn, for release on Napalm Records on June 7. The Tolkien-obsessees have delivered a good ‘un as Kim Kelly tells it:

Their comeback (of sorts) album, Old Mornings Dawn is everything one might hope for it to be, and then some. All the crucial hallmarks are there, from the gleefully over-the-top keyboards, echoing programmed drums, and wild, fanciful latter-day Bathory melodies to the raspy croaks and robust Viking choirs singing to halls up high. The songs are catchy and rousing, all sword-rattling bravado and grandiose keys, and the songwriting harkens back to their earliest, strongest recordings. The Austrian Black Metal Syndicate have returned!
