“Satan’s Countess” is a delicious and pulsating piece of old scholl speed/black metal in its finest. It’s a song that invites you to bang hard, and unstopping. The voice is harshy, raspy in the beginning, but then it chances to more melodic tunes. This change makes a lot of difference to the song because it aproaches Bunker 66 even more to their 1980s peers, for instance Omen. The drums are hasty in “Satan’s Countess,” but not the hasty of the following death/metal acts. Hasty as NWOBHM drums. It makes a lot of difference too because it’s as simple as catchy.
