Impiety
Funeralight... (2006 Reissue)
Digipak CD

Review

Despite the exotic flavors and the geography of its creators, Funeralight fits in rather well with much of the evolving black metal of its day. If you could combine Emperor's In the Nightside Eclipse with Celtic Frost's To Mega Therion, and then dowse them with the vocals of early Kreator, you'd be pretty close to what Impiety has produced on this EP. It's brief, energetic, diabolic, and often a little sloppy sounding due to the imbalance of the core instruments with the added synth and percussion. It's also not the best of Impiety's work. But the atmosphere created within is just rare enough that you'd wish to spin it from time to time (assuming you've got the 2006 Agonia records re-issue), and it holds up remarkably well for something so primal and filthy. - From the Dust Returned 4/5
