What do people think of Mayhem's Grand Declaration of War album?
It was the first Mayhem album i heard and i thought it was brilliant. Extremely experimental and so very different to anything Black metal had previously spawned. Even today it still sounds clinical and ahead of it's time.
I was surprised to hear it was being re-done. To me this new remastered and remixed version loses the sterile sound of the original and sounds slightly more typical Black metal albeit with a better drum sound. |
