Valravne/Some Kind Of Vampire/2020 EP Review


  Valravne  are  a  solo  project  from  Asheville,  North  Carolina  that  plays  a  very  aggressive,  depressive  and  misanthropic  form  of  black  metal  and  this  is  a  review  of  his  self  released  2020  ep  "Some  Kind  Of  Vampire".

  Spoken  word  samples  and  clean  playing  start  off  the  ep  before  going  into  a  heavier  musical  direction.  Vocals  are  mostly  high  pitched  black  metal  screams  while  the  faster  sections  of  the  songs  also  add  in  a  great  amount  of  blast  beats  and  tremolo  picking  which  also  gives  the  music  more  of  a  raw  feeling.

  When  guitar  solos  and  leads  are  utilized  they  are  also  done  in  a  very  melodic  style  while  the  songs  also  add  in  a  decent  mixture  of  slow,  mid  paced  and  fast  parts.  All  of  the  musical  instruments  also  have  a  very  powerful  sound  to  them  along  with  the  music  also  having  its  depressive  moments  as  well  as  some  clean  playing  also  returning  on  the  later  tracks  and  the  ep  closes  with  a  synth  orientated  ambient  track.

  Valravne  plays  a  style  of  black  metal  that  is  very  depressive,  atmospheric,  raw  and  misanthropic  sounding.  The  production  sounds  very  dark  and  raw  while  the  lyrics  cover  existentialism, depression  and  nihilism  themes.

  In  my  opinion  Valravne  are  a  very  great  sounding  aggressive,  depressive  and  misanthropic  black  metal  solo  project  and  if  you  are  a  fan  of  this  musical  genre,  you  should  check  out  this  ep.  RECOMMENDED  TRACKS  INCLUDE  "Contempt  For  All  Humankind"  and  "Vada  In  My  Ecafe".  8  out  of  10.
