Theurgia are a solo project from Venezuela that plays a very raw form of black metal and this is a review of his 2015 ep "Anti Perpetuo" which was released by Worship Tapes.
Spoken word samples start off the ep and after a few seconds the music goes into a very fast and raw black metal direction that also utilizes a great amount of blast beats and high pitched screams and you can also hear a great amount of melody in the guitar riffing and all of the musical instruments have a very powerful sound to them.
Throughout the recording there is a great mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts and you can also hear a brief use of melodic singing and spoken word parts and some tracks also bring in a small amount of clean playing as well as a few death metal growls being utilized at times and all of the songs are very heavily rooted in the 90's European style.
Theurgia plays a style of black metal on this recording that is very raw and melodic bringing in a vibe that is very close to the 90's Swedish style, the production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover nihilism, philosophy and war themes.
In my opinion Theurgia are a very great sounding raw black metal solo project and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Oscurantis" and "Anti Perpetuo". 8 out of 10.
