Swords, crucifixions and headbanging! TMOA is a strange beast of polymorphous black metal - almost sailing the seas of Sigh. If you hate Sigh, the probability you will hate TMOA is high. Twelve dozen tons of weirdness equip this lot with the devices needed to survive in an ocean of generic black metal, which they really are not. If early Darkthrone teamed up with Bolt Thrower to hire a gang of violinists and then kidnapped a chamber music orchestra to create hybrid music that ranges from Mayhem to Rammstein - and of course the holy Sigh! -  while watching Holy Grail, they would name themselves The Meads of Asphodel. Some sections are cheesy as fuck and I suspect it is deliberate, just like the LOL-inducing medieval photos. This is a unique band, very much tongue in cheek, with teeth grinding moments alternating with pure headbanging bliss. A unique beast of metal and definitely British! Brilliant beyond zeristic horizons!

  1. Strange beast all right. High marks for their effort to fuse a variety of different creative impulses into a singular whole. Sometimes it works, sometimes its cringe worthy, as experimentation and boundary pushing sometimes goes. Particularly dig the jihad themed stuff. Hearty thanks for the post.
