Bloomington's grimmest...

Hailing from Bloomington Indiana comes a bare bones black metal beast: Thenn. Seething and churning, Thenn play a very true and grim version of black metal on their EP release Threshing the Golden Fields. Thenn ascribe to the rawest essence of black metal: its fury, its rage, and its misanthropy. There does not seem to be any gimmicks with the band. Thenn mix slight elements of crust and brief moments of doom into their chaos as they follow the path blazed by early Scandinavian black metal bands. Threshing the Golden Fields has a grainy, lo-fi vibe that offers a familiar but satisfying take on oblivion.
