The Underground Resistance is the 15th studio album by Norwegian black metal band Darkthrone.
The album was recorded from spring 2010 through summer 2012 at Necrohell II Studios.
[5] On The Underground Resistance, the band largely abandoned the crust punk elements found on their previous four albums.
[5] PopMatters critic Dean Brown called it "a lengthy jaunt which touches upon the grandiose vocal gymnastics of King Diamond galloping upon hellbound '80s-inspired thrash metal riffs, before descending into the Crypts of Rays with a spiteful Celtic Frost groove".
[10] Both Pitchfork and PopMatters observed that the album possessed a youthful energy that belied the age of the band members.
