This is a review of a split album between Russia's Doden Grotte and Greece's Fullmoon Cult called "Summon The Wolves Of War" which was released by Askio Productions and we will start off the review with Doden Grotte a band that plays an old school form of black metal.
Their side of the split starts out with a very dark and heavy sound along with some grim black metal screams a few seconds later. All of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them and when the music speeds up a great amount of blast beats and tremolo picking can be heard which also gives the songs more of a raw feeling.
Throughout their side of the recording you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic yet old school style along with some clean vocals also being used briefly as well as the music also being very heavily rooted in the 90's era.
A small amount of melody can also be heard in some of the guitar riffing as well as a brief use of synths also being added in the background, one track also introduces clean playing onto their side of the recording along with some demonic growls and death metal elements also being utilized at times. One track adds in a brief use of ritualistic spoken word parts and they close their side of the split with a cover of Baal Zebuth's "The Castle Of Horror". The production sounds very raw and heavy while the lyrics cover darkness, occultism and black metal themes.
In my opinion Doden Grotte are a very great sounding raw and old school black metal and and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out their side of the split. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Summoned From Eternity" and "Dark Goddess Ov Black Metal".
Next up is Fullmoon Cult a band that plays a very raw and old school black metal.
Their side of the split starts out with a very fast and raw sound that also uses a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats, Most of their music is also very heavily rooted in the 90's era while the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams and all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them.
Ritualistic spoken word parts can also be heard briefly along with the songs also adding in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. All of the music is also very heavily rooted in the 90's era, melodic guitar leads can also be heard briefly and they close their side of the split with a cover of Impaled Nazarene's "We're Satans Generation". The production sounds very raw and heavy while the lyrics cover darkness and occultism themes.
In my opinion Fullmoon Cult are a very great sounding raw and old school black metal fan and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out their side of the split. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "The Invocation Of Exiled Lord" and "Enlighten My Path".
In conclusion I feel this is a very great sounding split and I would recommend it to all fans of raw and old school black emtal. 8 out of 10.
