MEDIA FEEDBACK:

86 / 100
➤ "... a well thought-out work ... Viking, Black and Doom - NECROKNIGHT have meticulously written and created their music ... all the details are in the right place ... the guitar performances always prove to be excellent ... thoroughly entertaining ..."
(Heavy Metal Heaven - Italian Videozine)

8,5 / 10
➤ "... with their own signature ... rhythm and riffing are so catchy and simply captivating ... epic, melodic and death metallic at the same time and catapulted straight ahead over the entire running time of a good thirty-eight minutes ..."
(Hellfire)

8 / 10
➤ "I really enjoy this album. If you like Amon Amarth but found the last few albums a bit too dark, or if you're looking for a Death Metal version of Immortal, or if you've always wondered what Manowar would sound like in Death Metal, you might enjoy 'The Skullthrone' as much as I do. A strong debut that gives hope for more!"
(Powermetal DE)

7,5 / 10
➤ "... the hoarse Death Metal vocals have a nice throaty sound and give the otherwise very harmonious music a rough note ... but it works really well in one piece without being too pandering ... I really like it ... NECROKNIGHT don't even try to be annoying with technical frills and overlong tracks. The clean production also fits well into the overall picture. Melodic Death Metal with harmonies and without nasty banging works after all!"
(Crossfire)

➤ "When I started thinking about who deserves the title Band of the Year, it was clear to me that there is only one candidate: NECROKNIGHT … a completely coherent package that qualifies them for larger stages."
(Magnets And Miracles)

➤ "... sound exactly the same on record as I experienced them live … there's a lot of heart and soul in every note and every detail ... raw, epic and with a clear punch ... great!"
(Metal Im Pott)

➤ "Despite borrowing from genre greats, NECROKNIGHT manage to develop their very own style … dynamic song structures, anthemic choirs and an impressive instrumental range give a depth that many established acts lack … particularly noteworthy are the magnificent solos and the powerful choruses, which are sure to give you goosebumps live."
(BlattTurbo)

➤ "Courage and victory … storms the scene with epic Heavy/Death Metal, combining surprising structures with absolute authenticity … a dark and ripping work in which every riff and every scream unleashes an overwhelming force … with speed, precision and unstoppable energy, singer Mirco and his band have achieved a debut of the highest quality …"
(Voces Del Heavy Metal)

➤ "… the deathliest of Death Metal growls leads the way, as this hard-hitting headbanger features a nice balance of melody and heaviness …"
(Wanna Hear A Great Song Today?)

➤ "… the quintet plays melodic Death Metal with a good Rock'n'roll edge, which is based on a classic Heavy Metal framework. ‘The Skullthrone’ is predominantly mid- and uptempo, with deep, barking but also slightly monotonous vocals …"
(Twilight)

➤ "An Amon Amarthian runs along Gothenburg's Manilla Road to enter into the Manowar as an Eternal Champion and in the end victoriously takes his place on 'The Skullthrone' ... goes straight ahead with speed and convinces with melodic guitar work ... pure passion and underground charm!"
(Legacy)

➤ "... draws a gloomy picture full of dark legends about kings, wars and fantastic beings with cinematic melodies and rocking guitar strumming ... thunderous drums, intense riffs and hoarse growls ... rousing, melodic Death Metal with Heavy Metal influences ... the debut of the Münster band is clearly thought through and painstakingly produced. It's worth a listen …"
(Metal Hammer)

Bulletpoints:
🔘 Great debut album by people of conviction

🔘 Completely independent, captivating mixture

These idealists from Münster know how to cultivate a multitude of proven virtues with sincerity and passion - and NECROKNIGHT focus on maximum authenticity.

The quintet's emphatically catchy and strikingly structured EPIC HEAVY/DEATH METAL ultimately reveals its very own dark and hungrily devouring magic.

With "The Skullthrone", the conspiratorial five-piece around singer Mirco present a highly listenable debut album, with material that is as fast as it is convincing in the long term, the five Necroknights can already place themselves on the higher quality level.

Every song on this powerful skull cult manifesto, including all the captivatingly charismatic and sublimely rabid lyrics, breathes the good old Heavy Metal spirit of the 1980s, just as this hopeful up-and-coming band knows how to keep up with the times in terms of playing culture.

FLASHBACK:
With their engagingly dark and powerful warrior sound, NECROKNIGHT thrust you directly into a shadowy realm that is as enthralling as it is fascinating to experience.

Formed in 2021, the shared vision of the consistently focussed participants quickly gave rise to the specific, epically sublime sonic framework in which the five-piece encapsulates high-calibre, melodically oriented songwriting along with exciting lyricism.

In this way, this all-round outstanding band unleashes relentless brutality and a truly electrifying stage presence with an enormously independent style. Haunting lyrics, thundering drums and crushing riffs ensnare the souls of anyone who enjoys being whipped into a frenzy by cultivated Heavy Metal intensity.
