Resistance is futile. Well, if you've been resisting Dark Throne releases of late- due to the bands detraction from black metal into punk territory- this release is a show of force. The Dark Throne music force, that is. Despite the genre the band dwells in, Fenriz & Nocturno's forceful presence is the one luring you back to the band. If you like the hype & wish for more punkish releases then The Underground Resistance is a sign of recession. The band isn't swearing by this genre any more (or so it seems) but the essence of punk is here. However, what's glaring in this one is the fact that it's a heavy release. That's right- heavy as in 'heavy metal' heavy. You can put it down to the slower, sludgier tracks but as it seems, Dark Throne came & did their thing then got away with it; for a good cause. The re-assurance here is that the band's black metal servings are there (these never got wiped out in the first place) in crusty servings. And being Dark Throne, their subsequent release is already in the works. What?!
