Stoooop!You are wrong! It´s not a new Darkthrone album as you might have led to believe after the first notes rang out, but an energetic cocktail mixing the early Entombed, the late Darkthrone and full-on Rock´n´Roll/Groovy feelings instead.

“Two Thousand Years” is the debut album of this Dutch “hardcore” band (I do not want to start the music genre debate… please). I would say “chapeau bas” for your first kick and please go on like this, churning out more of such entertaining music.

I really enjoyed listening to this album; maybe because I am a fan of the material of aforementioned bads. The vocals are evil and groovy, the music raw and the drum parts truly “mouth-watering”.

Moreover, 2 great songs like “Granite”(“We are the children of doom”!) and “Death Over Life” turn Anaphylactic Shock into a band to see live - the audience, no doubt, will be pleased.
