Grom
Behemoth
Grom signals a departure from pure lo-fi aesthetics by introducing a raw, pagan intensity. The mid-nineties recording sees the band weaving folk-inspired melodies into the aggressive textures of their tremolo picking.
Produced within the Polish underground, the record carries a specific gritty quality. It marks a transition for the group as they move away from primitive structures toward the more expansive approach found in their later work.
