This is a review of another recording from Mexico's Comingforever which continues the traditional black metal style of the previous release reviewed and the album was released in 2016 by Cuerpo Records and called "Sunburst".
Ambient style drones and field recordings start off the album along with some whispers a few seconds later before going into a very fast and raw musical direction which also uses a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. Vocals are mostly grim black metal screams while all of the drum beats are programmed.
Throughout the recording you can also hear a great mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts while all of the musical instruments have a very powerful sound to them. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are done in a very dark and melodic style along with a couple of the tracks being long and epic in length.
At times the riffs also add in a decent amount of melody while the music also has a good mixture of both old school and modern influences and as the album progresses an instrumental is also added onto the recording and a later song also brings in a small amount of clean playing. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover dark themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Comingforever and if you are a fan of traditional black metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "And Suddenly You merged With Earth" and "Consummationem". 8 out of 10.
