This is a review of a 3 way split with Singapor'es Nuurisk, Luna Azure and Welkin called "Tri-Necromantic Black Mass" which was self released in 2019 and we are going to start off the review with Nuurisk a duo that plays an atmospheric depressive form of black metal.
Their side of the split starts out with some oriental style instruments along with some synths also being utilized a few seconds later before going into a heavier direction. Vocals are mostly grim sounding black metal screams and when the music speeds up a great amount of black metal can be heard.
When tremolo picking is utilized it also gives the songs more of a raw feeling along with the riffs also adding in a decent amount of melody. Throughout their side of the recording you can also hear a great mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts as well as the vocals getting more depressive, all of the musical instruments can also be heard. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover dark and depressive themes.
In my opinion Nuurisk is a very great sounding depressive black metal duo and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out their side of the split. RECOMMENDED TRACK "Initiation Part one: Garden Ov The Damned".
Next up is Luna Azure a band that plays an experimental form of black metal.
Their side of the split starts out with some raw tremolo picking while the vocals are mostly grim sounding black metal screams. When guitar leads are utilized they are done in a very distorted yet melodic style and the y also mix in experimental elements into the heavier sections of the music.
Spoken word parts can also be heard briefly and when the music speeds up a decent amount of blast beats can be heard. Throughout their side of the recording you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover Eastern Occultism, Dimensional Travel and Misanthropy themes.
In my opinion Luna Azure are a very great sounding raw and experimental black metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out their side of the split. RECOMMENDED TRACK "Devoured Moon".
Closing the split is Welkin a solo project that plays a very raw form of black metal.
His side of the split starts out with a very fast, raw and lo-fi sound which also uses a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats along with the music being heavily rooted in the 90's style. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams and you can also hear all of the musical instruments that are present on his side of the recording.
One of the tracks is very long and epic in length along with the second track also shows the music adding in more mid tempo sections but still utilizing a good amount of fast riffing, melodic guitar leads can also be heard briefly. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover philosophy and misanthropy themes.
In my opinion Welkin are a very great sounding raw and old school black metal solo project and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out his side of the split. RECOMMENDED TRACK "Gate of The Astral Forest".
I n conclusion I feel this is a very great sounding split and would recommend it to all fans of black metal. 8 out of 10.
