Satryd are a 1 man band from Colorado Springs that plays a very atmospheric, raw and primitive form of occult black metal and this is a review of their self released 2012 demo.
Drums range from slow, mid paced to fast drumming with some blast beats being thrown into the music at times, while the synths when they are utilized bring a very dark and atmospheric sound to the music, as for the bass playing it has a very dark tone with riffs that follow the riffing that is coming out of the guitars.
Rhythm guitars range from slow, mid paced to fast atmospheric black metal riffs that are very dark, raw and primitive sounding at times as well as a brief use of soft and clean playing, while the lead guitars are very melodic, raw and primitive sounding black metal guitar solos and leads.
Vocals when they are utilized are all high pitched and grim sounding black metal screams that have a very depressive tone to them at times, while the lyrics cover a variety of occult themes range from Sumerians, Zunis, Sirius and Agartha as well as some dark and anti christian themes, as for the production it has a very dark, raw and primitive sound to it.
In my opinion Satryd are a very great sounding atmospheric occult black metal band and if you are a fan of this musical style, you should check out this demo. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "The Falling Of Heaven" "Slaves Of Our Own Mind" "A Dark New Age" and "Master Of Our Creation".RECOMMENDED BUY.
Interesting review, thank you.

The only way to acquire a Satryd album is to either be in the family, be someone he converses with and admires, or stumble upon it deep in the forests of Colorado... Otherwise, you're never going to find his play/work for sale.
ReplyDeleteThe 2012 DEMO CD was marked with Satryds blood, and only handful of people were unlucky enough to get it.
After that album, Satryd buried himself underground and undertook a metamorphosis. He ceased publishing music online halfway through his "Mad Jekylll" era (a threefold concept series).
... After which... "Sun Man" cracked out... Far out, and to rarely be seen or heard from again...
But he's still out there, playing dead... Dropping dead beats... Recording dead... Living dead.
... Only those with the 666th deep sense can summon his spirit. And if you're unfortunate enough, you just might be able to download the Sun Man family solar-discography in your dreams!
