Satyricon

Volcano

Keeps the density of Black Metal most of the time, simplistic drumming and harsh vocals, but the riffs they sound odd. Fuel for Hatred is a good example of Black N'Roll. 

Stand up tracks: Possessed (middle riff is rather headbangable)

Down points: Black Lava is boring.

Now, Diabolical

Broken ties with Black Metal. Even though the vocals are grim, at times, it sounds more like a dirty rock n'roll to me. They still have moments in which a riff is repeated over and over again, something they've brought from Black Metal, I suppose. I really enjoyed the production quality, the instruments sound dirt, bass drum is loud and clear, bass and guitars sound alive and heavy.

Stand-up tracks: A New Enemy (cool main riff, the middle riff is rather unexpected and eerie), Delirium (somewhat experimental and odd), To The Mountains (dense).

The Age of Nero

Listened to it three time. Didn't touch me. I can't even say I disliked it because it caused me no reactions at all.

Satyricon

Slower than ever, with a nice atmosphere. The drumming is very simple but it fits perfectly the music they're playing. Many riffs don't follow the "metal school of riffing", exploring elements of rock in general. Phoenix has some gothic rock feel to it, clean vocals and all.

Stand up tracks: Nocturnal Flare, Tro of Kraft, Nekrohaven

Deep Calleth Upon Deep

Pretty much the same of what was done on their last 4 records, but I kind of liked this a bit more than most of  what they did on the said previous records. Need to listen to it more. A sax on the intro Dissonant?! Cool.
