Stonecrypt - Morbid Demo

Stonecrypt is Serbian two-man band formed in Summer of 2010 and this is their first demo. 
They play kinnda boring old school black metal, but they will develop their own style as time passes, I guess.

The demo starts with Keyboard intro “Dark Descent” which in my opinion does not fit the rest of the release at all.
The next song “Ancient Breed” sest up the tempo which will last pretty much through the whole demo along with shredding riffs and programmed drums. The vocals are good but they do resemble of Abbath sometimes, yet that's not a bad thing.
Third song “Morbid Faces” represented the band so far and will do it in the future when they plan to release "Morbid Faces" single which will contain Burzum and Marduk cover songs. This song is ok, but I noticed that it's little quieter than rest of this demo.
The next song “Upon the Stake” is possibly the worst one on the demo. Nothing that we haven't heard in the songs before and million times besides that as well.
The last song "Dwelling of Evil Souls and Darkness" is a bit different because mid-tempo and fast tempo are mixed. This song has the dark atmosphere that I think the band was heading to through whole demo and finnaly did it.

This demo is released on Silent Scream Records and it's limited to 50 Cdrs in slipcase.

This is a classic Black Metal project with no compromises, but than again, kinnda boring.
If you are a fan of real underground black metal, I think you'll enjoy this.
