Grim Nihlistic Black Metal. This is a cold as death, Black Metal masterpiece!! Featuring members of HORNA & BEHEXEN, this is the Finnish BM supergroup! Perhaps the coldest release since DARKTHRONE's "Under A Funeral Moon"!
The riffing is fast, melodic, and in pure Finnish/Norwegian black metal roots heritage.
The band's melodic quality shines best in the track ‘Sargeist' on this album. It's absolutely heart wrenching. Dripping with anger and emotion. Regret, sorrow, hatred, ready to end it all. No Funeral. This is the real fucking deal.
Sargeist does a brilliant job breaking from blast-beats into a head banging steady rhythm that keeps me tapping my boot through the song at different rhythmically timed formations. It's in many ways traditional shit, done better than most groups out there.

Sargeist has always had an interesting atmosphere, and it's rather hard to describe. Imagine if Mütiilation's predilections for drugs, suicide, and Satan were celebrated instead of mourned and you have a good idea.
Sargeist's music is always vaguely disgusting and filthy yet resolutely proud of its own decay-hedonistic and excessive, like Caligula-era Rome. Well, if you want filth-caked black metal, it's hard to find a better example in the Sargeist catalog than this demo. Sargeist has never sounded so sleazy as on tracks like 'Anti-Human Black Metal Wrath', where the strains of 'Deathcrush'-era Mayhem come home to roost in a short, violently rhythmic track. The production only aids the oily, viscous feeling of these songs, with the murky guitars and drums moving like a sea of raw sewage under the perpetually hissing and howling vocals. It's definitely a good example of rawness used to aid music rather than detract from it.

Sargeist returns with an all-new entry into the black metal genre.
They take their sound and refine it into an unrelenting machine of darkness.
They keep all of their bass-lines that they're known for and amplify them into some of the best hearing in a long time. The guitar riffs are second to none. You seriously get the idea that Shatraug, Hoath Torog and Horns spent a lot of time sifting through different sounds and styles to try and find the best possible sound for this release. The drums, although sometimes a little too repetitive, sound top notch most of the time.
The band blends all these together to make some of the most melodic, dark and cold parts, to the most raw, brutal and intense parts.

Finnish black metal is an acquired taste. It's chaotic, noisy and pure evil.
This is a more mature release musically. The song structures have come a long way since Satanic Black Devotion, but still maintain everything this band is known for. There is definitely more of the signature intertwining guitar work, that weaves in and out amongst the chaos of the drums and ghastly vocals. It's that guitar work that takes the listener for an emotional roller coaster, especially on songs like "Burning Voice of Adoration", which has the ability to stir up absolute sadness and sorrow.
As for production, the formula is still the same. Turn everything up beyond reason and comprehension, almost to a breaking point. Seriously, prolonged exposure to this will probably make your houseplants wilt and die.

As the bloated corpse of black metal continues to be picked apart by Myspace “friends” and post-whatever posers, it’s up to scene veterans like SARGEIST to “Let the Devil In”. Featuring the six-string sorcery of HORNA songwriter Shatraug as well as the vile throat and cruel battery of BEHEXEN, Finland’s finest SARGEIST here display that black metalled orthodoxy need not spell creative death, that occult mysticism is still ripe for exploration if the words match the deeds – and especially if you have the songs to back them up. One anthem to the horned one after another, “Let the Devil In” masterfully balances raw, bloodcurdling passion with poised, steely-eyed professionalism: a new classic of traditional black metal is born!
4 new hymns, recorded in the same session like Sargeist's latest full length masterpiece, Unbound, showing nothing but Satanic Black Devotion.
