Katechon is a Norwegian black/death metal act hailing from the prolific region of Trondheim. The band's sophomore album, Coronation, was released in June of 2015 by Nuclear War Now! Productions on CD and vinyl. Sporting nearly thirty-five minutes over eight tracks, Coronation is suffocating yet engaging, chaotic yet flowing. Several members of Katechon have spent time in infamous Norwegian acts like Hellstorm, Wallachia and Thorns, but, with their latest album, it seems the band is intent on carving its on history.
This is an extremely heavy and dense album, but the band's swirling patterns of dissonance and frenetic melodies are superb. While the typical sunglasses and bullet belts style of black/death has its place, Katechon brings something that begins to transcend the genre; something that offers more than just primal aggression.

"Outre" sees Portal take their adhering style of surreal demented bizarre death metal (although Portal really transcend such a term these days, especially in this day in age where most bands that pass as "death metal" present a feeble display, far from what true horrifying death metal should encompass) and take it to a much more disturbing paradigm, than was found on the band's monumental "Seepia" observation.
Overall, such an album as "Outre" will only alienate Portal even more from the so-called death metal scene of today. Were most musicians like to play it safe and typical in such a genre, where things become easy to comprehend, Portal merely transcend all boundaries and go much beyond into a realm where no other band in the genre dare step foot in (on a musical and lyrical sense).

"Seepia" is the debut album by PORTAL originally released in 2003. A vision of utter horror, 'Seepia' is perhaps one of the most unique and intimidating albums ever conceived. Depraved, artsy and morally-impaired, through a twisted mindfuck of oppressive histrionics and the class of classic avant-garde cinema, Portal portrays theatrical musical dementia through a death metal lens.

Ambientscapes mixed with black metal Hell from the mastermind behind the exemplary Nightbringer and Bestia Arcana.
