Angelgrinder

I believe this album is Lord Belial's finest work. They started as a very mediocre black metal band. For this album they stopped using pseudonyms and removed all make-up. Their musical style changed as well. After playing a very melodic black metal, they play now a more complex black-death metal. Insofar as they get closer to death metal, their music sounds more extreme and brutal. Moreover, the album production is better and the music too. Lord Belial did not get rid of the melodic passages at all, but kept and included some of them here and there. Nonetheless, now these melodic passages make sense insofar as they contrast with the brutal and fast passages. Lord Belial achieved musical maturity through Angelgrinder.
