United Kingdom's solo project have returned with a new recording which is a re-recorded version of his 1999 album "Starscape" with the new version being an updated take on his older material which where also in an early style of experimental black metal and the album is called "Starscape 2.019" and will be released in September by Death To music Productions.
Sci-fi orientated soundscapes start off the album before going into a heavier musical direction while the vocals are mostly grim sounding black metal screams. When synths are utilized they also give the music more of an atmospheric and symphonic feeling as well as the riffs also adding in a decent amount of melody.
Spoken word parts can also be heard in some parts of the music along with a couple of the tracks being long and epic in length. All of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them and when the music finally speeds up blast beats are added onto the recording.
A couple of songs are instrumentals as well as elements of electronic music can also be heard on some of the later tracks along with the music also keeping most of its 90's influences, when tremolo picking is utilized briefly it gives the music more of a raw feeling and one track also introduces clean playing onto the recording. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover space, metaphysical and mythological themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding album from Ewigkeit and if you are a fan of experimental and 90's black metal, you should check out this re-recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Point Of Origin" "Return Of Planet X" and "Birth Of Horus". 8 out of 10.
