Bloedarend Both musicians have impressive instrument control and the album is blessed with a cracking production. I've thought long and hard about how to describe this album, but I keep returning to the same conclusion: if you dig "Volcano" and "Now, Diabolical"-era Satyricon (and I do, very much so), then you need to get this album asap. Favorite track: Rex Nemorensis.

Alexander Åberg Thundering Hooves puts alot into this black metal album. Thick with atmosphere and comprehensive songs, this brings out some of the best stuff in metal. A massive album. Favorite track: Pallid Gaze.

K. Hungus Lives Killer black metal that executes all of the elements very, very well. Reminds me of Now, Diabolical and Age of Nero era Satyricon which is fine by me. Hard to believe his is a debut! Hail \M/
edit: just saw Bloedarend's comp and I obviously agree! Favorite track: Goatswood.

barleybase Can you have blackened-death-doom? Thundering Hooves says yes in spectacular fashion. The seamless transitions between styles and the sudden riff break outs create something utterly enchanting. This is one hell of a debut. Favorite track: Mara.

Turd Ferguson This was an unexpectedly pleasant find. These guys mix so many styles of metal so effortlessly that it's kind of ridiculous. Can't wait to see what they do in the future. Favorite track: Rex Nemorensis.

YomaBarr Recorded in lockdown. As lockdowns get worse metal gets better.

Earwormy guitars, best riffs I've heard this year ;), rumbling bass, thundering drums, no synths! what else do you want? Also, goes straight to the core of that reptilian metalbrain that screams THIS STRONG! THIS GOOD! LISTEN LISTEN LISTEN!

(The year starts great btw. Again 😎)

about

Thundering Hooves are a two-man band based in the South of England, who will release their debut LP ‘Vestiges’ in January 2021. Their sound is built on a backbone forged of blackened metal, with prominent streaks of death and doom, as well as classic metal flourishes, resulting in a potent brew of influences.

Through their songs, Thundering Hooves seek to create a sonic universe where there is a direct continuum between the primeval darkness of early Black Sabbath and the rawness of traditional black metal. Rather than strictly adhering to any genre specific code or etiquette, their intent is to establish an atmosphere of foreboding and menace, whilst placing an emphasis on the ancestral art of the riff, melodic leads, and dynamic song structures. Lyrically, the songs are rooted in folk horror, weird fiction and psychogeography, conjuring images of half-forgotten rituals, desolate and ancestral landscapes riddled with malevolent presences and lurking terror.
