A brand-new band hailing from Finland's ever-fertile black metal underground, Fordom, are set to release their debut album entitled Manic Howls on the 5th of November via Night in Terrors. No paradigmatic "Finnish black metal" here on Manic Howls, the quartet's first public recording: rather, they dive headfirst into the rotten underbelly laid down by domestic legends like Warloghe, Azazel, and Musta Surma back during the glorious '90s. Indeed, from the musty 'n' mildewed recording to the hulking-yet-distant songs themselves, Manic Howls shows Fordom are ancient adepts despite their exceedingly young age as a band. All is laid bare, bloodily so; every struck chord and drum hit and vocal gash comes from a very real, and very physical, place that cannot be faked by modern recording plug-ins and such. This is the kind of olde-worlde black metal not meant for Instagram or YouTube or Discogs, only for the deepest (de)basements of the self and soul. Manic Howls is thusly aptly titled.
For those who are nostalgic for those glorious times, as well as the sorely missed likes of fellow Finnish defiants Musta Kappeli and Pure Evil, Fordom have the black drugs to destroy yourself with Manic Howls. Begin destroying yourself with the brand-new track "Destroying The Temple Of God". Link
