Translated as “hatred” in Gaelic, FUATH is the atmospheric black metal offshoot of SAOR’s Andy Marshall. Taking inspiration from arguably black metal’s most fertile and explosive period — the early to mid-1990s — the music channels the unrelenting tenor and iciness of forebears DARKTHRONE and MAYHEM, as well as the mystery and atmosphere of bands like WINDIR. ‘II’ marks a huge progression from FUATH debut album ‘I’ (2016), with better-crafted songs, sharper black metal vocals from Marshall and enhanced production values.
For fans of WINDIR, (early) DARKTHRONE, SAOR
