Nuklear Frost delivers a fresh take on Melodic Black Metal (sound that emerged from Sweden in the mid-'90s with trailblazers like Dissection, Naglfar, Sacramentum, and Necrophobic) on their new album, Subjugation - balancing dark, blasting melodies with enraged vocals, assisted by an ominous, aggressive production. Even though this record pays respect to the roots of black metal, this is absolutely current and totally vital. Hammering, blasting, raging, and memorable.
