Galgeberg
Cerberus
(Our Ancient Future)
2/5
Cerberus is the debut album from Norwegian death metal band Galgeberg. It consists of six songs that are an amalgamation of death metal and punk; each song will shred your eardrums like thin slices of cheese. The guitars and drums are an assault to the inner ear.
The song “Ode to O’Connor” was a missed opportunity for the band to give a slower, more melodic, tribute to the late Sinead O’Connor. Instead, it thrashes on like the rest of the songs. Her name can be heard screamed at the start of the song.
If you like taking the three-headed dog for a walk through Hell, then this album is for you. It’s a non-stop wall of sound from start to finish. It’s perfect for the atmosphere of Satan’s domain.
However, Cerberus left me feeling disoriented and wishing I was as far from Hell as possible.
