SKVERNA is a word older than 500 years and it denotes something bad, saddening with a cloud, misery, decay...
The music of FATUM perfectly reflects the meaning of this word. Harsh, heavy metal punk sounding like an omen of the coming darkness. The sound of the recording bears a pretty dirty atmosphere, but I cannot say the instruments are unclear. They rather bring the sonic vibe that was associated with the birth of three important musical styles - death metal, black metal and crust. Vibe that carries you far beyond the limits of a modern heavy sound. The whole of this merciless composition is accompannied with vocals in the Russian mother tongue, which shifts FATUM to even another dimension. Now comes the time for you to appreciate the raw sound of the Russian language. If you are looking for musical comparisons, I'd say that this band draws inspiration from such bands as BOLT THROWER, CELTIC FROST, AMEBIX, DARKTHRONE, AXEGRINDER and last but not least VENOM.
