My first purchase for '09 is Deathspell Omega's Chaining the Katechon; it's a one song EP lasting 22min- definitely not for the impatient.I'm a keen fan of this French black metal outfit; the band keeps a very mysterious profile yet the music remains very commanding & ahead of the times. Chaining is a typical DO song, with lots of guitar dabbling, nothing too elitist in tone but the arrangement here is worthy of exaltation. While the change in pace to address the various phase of the track isn't exactly original, the band's conviction for the music genre remains clear- uncompromising.
