Czech heavy/black metal heroes Root just unleashed a video for the song "Moment Of Fright," taken from last album "Kärgeräs - Return From Oblivion." The album was released in November on Agonia Records and can be heard in full right here.

Root is one of the original pre-second-wave black metal bands formed in 1987 by iconic vocalist Jiri "Big Boss" Valter. In contrast to Bathory and Venom, Root took the black metal genre in a different direction, featuring Big Boss' chartacteristic clean vocals, dark sound and an epic approach.

The band comments: "As always in our history as a band, we aim to deliver a unique album, something that will stand out and shine its own light in our discography. Expect dark metal at its best, along with some surprising elements. We've recorded one fully acoustic song and one entirely instrumental. Overall, the album will include ten new tracks that will differ from our previous records."

I like it. It was hard to choose between them and Master's Hammer for Black Metal History Month.

Such an interesting band with an odd history. I'm not crazy about everything in the discography but most of it deserves to be heard by a wider audience.
