About the Band

Panzerfaust is the fifth studio album by Norwegian black metal band Darkthrone, released in June 1995 by Moonfog Productions (Europe) and The End Records (North America). The track "Quintessence" featured lyrics by Varg Vikernes, their second and final album to do so. As with the previous album Transilvanian Hunger, all instruments on Panzerfaust were recorded solely by Fenriz on a 4-track recorder set up in his bedroom (dubbed "Necrohell Studios" by the band); with Nocturno Culto performing vocals on all songs except for the outro. In October 2010, Panzerfaust was reissued by Peaceville Records as a two-disc edition, with the second disc featuring Fenriz discussing the making of the album and the subject matter of the songs. In this commentary, Fenriz cited Celtic Frost's Morbid Tales (1984), Bathory's Under the Sign of the Black Mark (1987), and Vader's Necrolust (1989) as key riff inspirations.

Album Review

Panzerfaust's latest offering, 'The Suns of Perdition – Chapter IV: To Shadow Zion', is a relentless assault on the senses that showcases their mastery of blackened metal. The album's overall sound is a cacophony of haunting melodies, fierce blast beats, and guttural vocals that create a bleak and oppressive atmosphere. Standout tracks like 'The Hesychasm Unchained' and 'To Shadow Zion (No Sanctuary)' exemplify the band's ability to seamlessly blend aggression with intricate songwriting. The production quality is top-notch, with every instrument and vocal line coming through with clarity and power. This release solidifies Panzerfaust's position as one of the leading forces in the black metal scene, pushing boundaries and creating a truly immersive listening experience.
