If the first 30 seconds doesn't grab you, nothing else in the song will. However, I must state I feel that riff is not only extremely well crafted, but somehow idiosyncratic - influenced by Burzum & Slayer without being a cheap amalgamation of both.

I really quite enjoyed the tremolo passages in that track. I think generally speaking, straight up black metal is at its best when a band can really put together solid harmonies and melodies whilst still sounding dissonant. I'd be interested in hearing something similar to this if you'd be willing to pass on some recommendations...
