Argus Megere are a band from Romania that plays an atmospheric form of black metal and this is a review of their 2017 album "VEII" which was released by Loud Rage Music.
Ambient style keyboards start off the album and they also mix in with the more heavier and melodic sections of the music along with most of the tracks being very long and epic in length and when the music speeds up a great amount of blast beats are utilized while the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams.
During the faster sections of the songs a great amount of tremolo picking can be heard which also gives the music more of a raw black metal feeling along with the solos and leads being done in a very melodic fashion and the songs also bring in a great mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts.
Clean singing can also be heard quite a bit throughout the recording along with a brief use of deep growls while the keyboards also go back to the more atmospheric side of the 90's era while all of the musical instruments sound very powerful while the solos and leads give the songs a more up to date style and clean guitars are used briefly on the closing track.
Argus Megere plays an atmospheric style of black metal this is very much dominated by keyboards while also having a great amount of heaviness, the production sounds very professional while the lyrics are written in Romanian and cover nihilism, misanthropy, and anti Christianity themes.
In my opinion Argus Megere are a very great sounding atmospheric black metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRAACKS INCLUDE "Carul Ceruli" and "Tabla". 8 out of 10.
