10. The Sound of Desperation (12:45)

Much-anticipated second album, "OBSCURA SYMPHONIA" CD from Norway's MASSEMORD-- hot on the heels of the sleeper smash "Skogen Kaller" debut album! Fans of the acclaimed debut album will be more than satisfied that MASSEMORD has successfully continued to blast forth with their signature mix of "classic" sounding Nordic Black Metal, Viking atmosphere, epic melodicism, and grim brutality all rolled together! Fans will celebrate to hear the over-the-top ("beefed up") production, the Blackened savagery tempered by skilled finesse that belies the "kicked-up-a-notch" attack! Critics and detractors may decry "more of the same", but followers and converts of MASSEMORD's horde will feast on "Obscura Symphonia" as continuing triumphantly forward on the true path to Underground supremacy!
