Black Anvil are “Still Reborn”

The first Black Anvil track from their new album reminded me of peas, but this one just reminds me of beer. And lots of it. Together with headbanging, and moshing (but none of that ninja shit). And sure, why not, some whiskey thrown in for good measure.

Stream “Still Reborn” over at Noisey. Like “Eventide” before it, this song is so much more than the black metal mixed with hardcore for which Black Anvil are known. That guitar solo around the 7-minute mark — is this a first for Black Anvil? I can’t ever remember them playing something so bluesy and melodic — and I love it! Yet the track on the whole is no less gritty or heavy. So far Black Anvil are two-for-two with songs from Hail Death, coming May 27th via Relapse (pre-order here). Reborn, indeed.
