Flukt are a band from Norway that plays a very raw and old school form of black metal and this is a review of their 2019 album "Darkness Devour" which was released by Dusktone.
A very fast and raw sound starts off the album along with a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams while the riffs also add dark sounding melodies into some parts of the songs as well as the music also being very heavily rooted in the second wave Norwegian style but modern at the same time.
Throughout the recording you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts while whispered vocals can also be heard briefly. Clean playing can also be heard in certain sections of the recording along with all of the musical instruments also having a very powerful sound to them.
When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic style as well as some of the riffing also adding in a small amount of black'n'roll elements. Growls can also be heard briefly and the closing track is very long and epic in length. The production sounds very raw and heavy while the lyrics cover occultism, darkness, war, and death along with one track also being written in Norwegian.
In my opinion Flukt are a very great sounding raw and old school black metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Serpetn" "Azrael" and "Curse of The Nephilim". 8 out of 10.
