Now comes their 3rd full length, "Kings Of Chaos". This album had to see a more diverse approach and the band have excelled themselves in creating their best album to date. As soon as the first riff hits the deck you know you are in for a real metal-fest. This time Hecate Enthroned have added an extra dimension with some of the most ferocious death/black metal chords in years giving the album a death metal leaning whilst still retaining the classic melodic keyboards and atmospheric passages that they are well known for. Tracks like "Perjurer" and "Blessing In Disguise" contain more substance than most metal outfits entire albums, changing from blasting death metal to gothic tinged choral passages and majestic black metal in one hit. Brilliantly produced by Pee Wee Coleman (Paradise Lost, Anathema etc) this is the album to silence all critics! No bullshit, just 100% aggressively epic black/death metal of the highest order. One of the finest true black/death crossover albums of 1999!
