����� Seemingly cultured from a rancid sample of Beherit's black blood, Larenuf Jubileum collects all of the demo material that Finland's Black Feast put out before later changing their name to Witchcraft. During their brief run under the B-Feast banner, these guys spewed some supremely fucked-up, necrotic noise metal that delivers the bestial goods. It's all obviously indebted to the sound of early Beherit, a filthy black chaos of messy, primitive black metal, but these guys were able to transcend being merely another Beherit tribute act by virtue of their violently unhinged energy and the barbaric force of their music; some of the stuff that was captured here reaches a level of noisiness and de-evolution that approaches noisecore-like levels of gibbering chaos, but laced with bits of diseased black-cosmic ambience and spooky synthdrift that swirls through the gutters of these songs.
����� What makes this stuff work is how incredibly fucked up it all sounds. Collecting the Worship Of Darkness demo and a pair of promo tapes from 2010, their tracks from the Abominations Of Darkness compilation, and a track from their 2011 tape, this makes up the bulk of their recorded work. And it's all slobbering, shambling blasts of nearly incomprehensible riffing and spazzoid tremolo picking, those guitars forming a garbled buzz that sometimes coalesces into a putrid punk-like riff or weirdly Sabbathoid dirge (like on "Necrosabbath"). Vocals are completely over the top, a vomitous, utterly unintelligible mess of disgusting gasps, snarls and gorilla grunts, virtually non-verbal throat-horror echoing through their foul fog. Sometimes that frenzied, discordant blasting and mangled, slobbering chaos is laced with brief bits of sonic weirdness that come out of nowhere, dropping off into an eerie, simple keyboard melody accompanied by a primitive caveman drumbeat, or erupting into blasts of bizarre atonal synth, or a brief passage of choral drone. But those are glimmers within the overall orgy of sonic violence, the recordings growing messier and murkier the further they go along. It's safe to say that this sort of inchoate, primitive sonic sewage probably won't appeal to those already averse to the bestial anti-musical aesthetic of that sort of Beherit/Blasphemy-influenced goatgrind, but if you've dug some of the other blackened noise metal obscurities that we've been digging lately, this collection is certainly worth checking out.
