Barbarian - Faith Extinguisher

Barbarian are an Italian band that worships in the altar of all things early Celtic Frost & Hellhammerish without obviously coming close to the Swiss grandmasters of the genre. The go for the same proto-thrash/black that’s basic and primal and to the point without any higher artistic aspirations with guttural vocals and the best thing going on for them being the engaging guitar riffs and the overall “evil” and “threatening” atmosphere, a sort of area where they manage to do pretty well. Classically, a Trio, they exhibit the strengths of that configuration as well as the usual weaknesses, but in our case, with the bar, not set too high, the guys don't have too many hurdles to overcome.
