Download Various - Italian Tribute To Darkthrone album

Review by farina hidayati

Italian Tribute To Darkthrone is a unique compilation album that pays homage to the Norwegian black metal band, Darkthrone. Featuring various Italian artists, the album offers a fresh take on some of Darkthrone's most iconic tracks.

The album opens with "Transilvanian Hunger," covered by the band Opera IX. The track stays true to the original, with its raw and primitive sound. However, the Italian vocals add a new dimension to the song, making it sound even more haunting.

Other notable tracks include "In the Shadow of the Horns" covered by Kult, and "Under a Funeral Moon" by Handful of Hate. The latter is particularly impressive, with its fast-paced drums and furious guitar riffs.

One of the highlights of the album is the cover of "Quintessence" by Forgotten Tomb. The band's take on the track is slower and more atmospheric, with the addition of clean vocals and acoustic guitars.

Summary by farina hidayati

Italian Tribute To Darkthrone is a well-executed tribute album that showcases the diversity of the Italian metal scene. While some tracks stay true to the original, others offer a fresh interpretation, making the album a must-listen for Darkthrone fans and metalheads alike.
