Walk The Path Of Sorrow


"Walk The Path Of Sorrow" is a track by Norwegian black metal band Satyricon, featured on their debut studio album Dark Medieval Times, originally released in 1993 through Moonfog Productions and remastered in 2021. The album was recorded in August and September 1993 and established Satyricon as a key voice in the black metal genre. For electric guitarists, the track offers an entry point into early Norwegian black metal techniques, including raw, atmospheric riffing and the cold, sparse tonal palette characteristic of the era.

  • Dark Medieval Times was recorded in just two months — August and September 1993 — capturing a raw, unpolished black metal sound.
  • The 2021 remaster revisits the debut with updated audio quality and different artwork, making it a fresh reference for tone study.
  • Satyricon's debut is a foundational black metal record, making its guitar work a useful study in early Norwegian genre conventions.

Wongraven relies on the Les Paul Standard's thick humbucker tone and natural sustain to anchor Satyricon's grinding riffs in minor-key compositions. The warm, responsive pickup output cuts through distorted amp saturation while maintaining pick-attack clarity essential for black metal's tremolo passages.

The Custom's heavier body and slightly brighter humbucker response give Wongraven enhanced midrange presence and tonal definition when cranking tube amplification hard. This makes it ideal for maintaining riff articulation and dynamic picking control across Satyricon's heavy, sustained chord work.
