Sargeist – Tyranny Returns LP (Blood Red & Black Smoke Vinyl)
Sargeist – 'Tyranny Returns' LP
180g Blood red & black smoke vinyl edition with printed inner sleeve & poster limited to 500 copies
Originally unleashed as a demo in 2001, 'Tyranny Returns' stands as one of the rawest and most unapologetically vile releases in the Sargeist catalog. Now reissued with updated layout and packaging under the direct supervision of founding member Shatraug, this release captures the band at its most primal and depraved. This is black metal in its most corrupted form being gritty, hateful, and steeped in nihilistic atmosphere. Tracks like Anti-Human Black Metal Wrath channel the chaotic spirit of early Mayhem, drenched in lo-fi production that enhances the suffocating, sewage-soaked soundscape. It's sleazy, sinister, and gloriously filthy, a hedonistic descent into pure black metal decadence. For fans of Mütiilation, early Darkthrone, and the raw French underground, 'Tyranny Returns' is an essential piece of the Finnish black metal legacy.
