Of Darkness…

Therion

Gritty, primitive Swedish death metal with unexpected rhythmic complexity. A raw document of a band beginning to outgrow the confines of their genre.

February 1991 · MG Records (2)

A grim, claustrophobic exploration of urban decay and existential dread.

Moments Worth Listening For
The jarring rhythmic shift three minutes into Morbid Reality that signals the band's progressive future.
The suffocating, mid-tempo groove of Asphyxiate With Fear that defines the album's oppressive weight.
The eerie, dissonant guitar harmonies opening Time Shall Tell that hint at a more complex musicality.
Where This Album DepartsEach spoke is a trait. The orange shape shows where this album pulls away from — or holds to — the rest of the artist’s catalogue. Tap for more.
