Brzask are a band from Poland that plays an old school and melodic form of black metal and this is a review of their self titled and self released 2020 demo.
A synth orientated intro starts off the demo before going into a heavier direction while the riffs also add in a great amount of melody. Vocals are also done in a very deep almost death metal style while also throwing in some black metal screams at times and when the music speeds up a great amount of blast beats can be heard.
When tremolo is utilized it also gives the songs more of a raw feeling while the solos and leads are also done in a very melodic style. Throughout the recording you can also hear a great mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts along with one track also adding in a brief use of acoustic guitars also being added to a couple of songs.
All of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them and synths also return on the closing song which also adds in a brief use of spoken word parts. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover Sudetian Folklore and Legends.
In my opinion Brask are a very great sounding old school and melodic black metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this demo. RECOMMENDED TRACK "Crimson Dawn Ritual". 8 out of 10.
