We all know that Oslo is historic when it comes to black metal, but these days Norway is also known for its hardcore bands. Sibiir is a relative newcomer to these ranks, but they are no less dark and decrepit than their peers. Their debut self-titled LP is due out on December 9th, but I wanted to give you a preview of what to expect. The opening track, among my top 3, "Bekmörke" is fantastic; and it should be no surprise that a song called "Beat Them To Death" is heavy as hell.
