Description
"Norwegians Zyklon are back with their second effort Aeon, and they are back with a roar. What else would you expect from the album with an F5 tornado picture on the cover? For those of you who don’t know, Zyklon is a band founded by Samoth, guitar, and Trym, drums, formerly of Emperor’s fame. While the latest Emperor release Prometheus: Discipline of Fire and Demise was highly symphonic complexly arranged black metal, Zyklon veered off in the territory of the aggressive death metal with its debut World ov Worms. With Aeon it seems like Samoth wanted to further distance himself from Emperor, especially Ihsahn’s pull for black symphonics. World of Worms, and now Aeon, go back to the violent non-compromising roots. Yet, among the multitude of layers presented in Aeon one can hear the complexity, atmospherics and well-roundness of mature songwriters. The core of the band, Samoth and Trym, are joined by Destructhor (Myrkskog) on lead-guitar (appeared on World ov Worms) and newcomer Secthdamon on bass and vocals. Still, the album features guest appearances by other prominent Norwegian metal scene members such as Daemon (Limbonic Art), Ofu Kahn and LRZ (Peccatum and Source of Tide)." metalreviews.com
