Release date: 2008
EAN/UPS: 7320470088975
Media type: CD

2008 sophomore release from this Norwegian Metal outfit. There is no rest for the wicked, and Sahg is certainly no exception to the rule. In the time since their 2006 debut, Sahg I, the gloomy Norwegians have left their black mark on two continents and made much rumble along the way. Making this second studio album has sent them to hell and back, and only a vicious curse have kept Sahg II from being released earlier. The inspiration from Pentagram, the Sabs and the Zeps is still present, but Sahg II also breaks limits on both ends of the musical scale compared to its predecessor; more fast, energetic fury on 'Ascent To Decadence' and 'Pyromancer', and further into Psychedelic atmospheres on 'Escape The Crimson Sun' and 'Monomania'. In total, an uncompromising and dynamic album that stretches the band to its limits, when it comes to musicality and songwriting.
