Merrimack - Of Entropy and Life Denial
March 20 2008 at 11:51:18 PM
Merrimack is French Black Metal that takes no truck with subtlety, wasting all in its path and refusing to go it any way but full bore. That being said, Of Entropy and Life Denial offers little in the way of variety. Each song works in breakneck allegro or languid allegro moderato: speeding up, catching its breath—and speeding up again. This schema has worked to dazzling effect with sister bands Antaeus and Hell Militia—LSK, who plays bass with the aforementioned bands also ends her substantial skills to Merrimack—but here it’s just too much of a good thing, making extended listens something of a great and unwanted labor. To be administered in small doses only.
