Troll
Troll is the on-again, off-again project led by one
Nagash.
Nagash is better known for forming and leading
The Kovenant
(where he now goes by the name Lex Icon),
but Troll predates that band by a number of years, formed
back in 1992 originally as a trio.
The other two guys left and Nagash put out two releases
done completely by himself, then put Troll on hold
while he formed Covenant (later The Kovenant) as well
as serving time in
Dimmu Borgir
for a time.
A few years later, Nagash recruited a full lineup and released
two more albums (actually recorded in one session but
released a year apart) before once again putting the band
on hold.
Finally, yet another all-new lineup has a release in early 2010.
Comparing the first two Troll eras,
the early work, as seen on 1996's
Drep De Kristne, shows
Nagash at his blackest, as this album is clearly the truest
black metal album he's ever done, an old-school symphonic
black metal fest in the tradition of, say, early
Emperor.
By contrast, the work on
The Last Predators, released in
2000, modernizes the basic black metal style noticeably,
with an improved production, riffing a shade more traditionally
metal rather than the pure black metal style of the past, and
slight industrial touches (though not close to what Nagash has
been doing with The Kovenant recently).
