Hailing
from Sweden and forming in 2019, ZATYR quickly set to work on their
debut EP – plus, speaking of "set," their vocalist Set used to be in the
beloved Devil Lee Rot. Titled Ornament of Proposition, the band’s first
public recording was released digitally in September of that year, and
proudly displayed an otherwise-new band brimming with the fire of the
ancients and confidence to spare. Indeed, ZATYR here sounded
authentically old, casting their gaze across the darkest and classiest
currents of classic heavy metal singed with a touch of first-wave black
metal. But, paradoxically, the quartet just as ably burned with the
enthusiasm of feral youngbloods, imbuing the EP’s three tracks with
boundless passion.
Seeing
fit to foster the rich lifeblood of the heavy metal underground, DYING
VICTIMS grants ZATYR’s debut EP on a new lease on life, rendering it
onto black gold and including an exclusive bonus track, now encompassing
a total of 18 stout minutes. Truly, this re-release shall rightfully
expose ZATYR to the wider metal landscape, boldly emblazoning “The
Devil’s Rock ‘n’ Roll” across the hearts and minds of those who hail
ancient heavy metal and black metal alike. Names to be referenced
include early Running Wild, Mercyful Fate, Omen, Brocas Helm, Death SS
and even Bathory’s transition from Blood Fire Death to Hammerheart, but
all done with an addicting zeal that’s entirely ZATYR’s alone. Open thy
ears and allow Ornament of Proposition to recast its spells!
