| | Sceptic Pathetic Being CD Sceptic Discography of CDs
Poland's Sceptic (yes, that's the way they spell it) returned to action with their second collection of technically proficient death metal in 2001's Pathetic Being. Introduced by an old school, acoustic guitar piece (think vintage Sepultura), the album soon explodes into a surprisingly accomplished barrage of ferocious riffing, manic rhythms, and surprising time changes. Powered by the guitar duo of Jacek Hiro and Czesiek Semla, complex tracks like "Ancient Portal," "Only Lies," and the instrumental "Particles of Time" aspire to the progressive thrash songwriting of latter-day Death in no uncertain terms. In fact, monster drummer Maciek Zieba's inventive percussive work points directly to Death's final masterpiece, Sound of Perseverance, and vocalist Michal Senajko's venomous rasp is also very reminiscent of Chuck Schuldiner. Yet despite these obvious points of reference, there's no denying Sceptic's own merits and well-developed songwriting touch. The album's centerpiece, the multi-faceted "Ancestor of All Powers," for instance, traverses an incredibly wide array of influences, even featuring a solo bearing an uncanny resemblance to Yngwie Malmsteen's neo-classical stylings. Completed by a cover of the old Nocturnus chestnut "Arctic Crypt," Pathetic Being offers an entertaining throwback to the sounds of yesteryear. ~ Eduardo Rivadavia

Pathetic Being music CDs
$10.45 2003 reissue of the Scandinavian dark metal act's 1992 album features six tracks plus an exclusive multimedia enhanced interview with the band (Chapter 2), packaged in a digipak. Peaceville.
Heavy metal has always championed the darker things in life, but whatever they might say in their interviews, most bands are really just mugging for the press, fronting a fantasy image for the benefit of their impressionable young fans. But all bets are off when it comes to the infamous Norwegian black metal scene, where in the early '90s popular bands like Mayhem, Emperor, and Burzum saw key members charged with real-life acts of crime ranging from church burnings to outright murder. Standing just outside this macabre "inner circle," as it was called, was the Oslo-based Darkthrone, whose mentorship under scene leader (and later, most notorious victim) Euronymous began to bear fruit with their third album, A Blaze in the Northern Sky. Unlike many of their peers -- whose hellish ...

Pathetic Being album
$10.09 "Darkthrone is for all the evil in man," proclaims the back cover of Transilvanian Hunger, the Norwegian group's fourth release -- but more controversial is the proclamation that contained within was "Norsk Arisk Black Metal," loosely translated, "Norwegian Aryan Black Metal." One would have to be fluent in Norwegian to understand whether or not Transilvanian Hunger boasts a racist agenda, since all lyrics, save for the vampire-themed title track, are "sung" in said dialect, but such a proclamation reeks of a publicity stunt from this batch of antisocial black metallers (further evidenced by the lyrical contributions of Norwegian scenester/convicted murderer/Burzum leader Varg Vikernes). Look past this malarkey, and you'll find, well, an impenetrable wall of noise, a 39-minute blur of mosquito-buzzing guitar riffs, blastbeats, and inhuman howls. The album boasts a subbasement-level production resembling a distant radio broadcast ripe with ambient noise; the most patient of black metal listeners may find some edible scraps amid the production rubble, but only "Over Fjell Og Gjennom Torner" offers respite with a "Raining ...
