This is a review of another recording from Mexico's Precaria which consists of the songs they recorded for the 2018 split "Metamorphosphoros" and the previously reviewed "Theosulphuros" as and they are compiled on a single album called "Nigraluminisceria" which will be released in November by I, Voidhanger Records.
A very dark and heavy sound starts off the compilation along with some grim yet high pitched black metal screams a few seconds later. All of the musical instruments on the album also have a very powerful sound to them as well as most of the tracks are also very long and epic in length and the solos and leads are done in a very dark yet melodic style.
When the music speeds up a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can be heard which also gives the songs more of a raw feeling. Evil sounding melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing along with the tracks also adding in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts.
When keyboards and ambience is utilized it also gives the songs more of an atmospheric feeling along with some clean playing also being added into certain sections of the recording, some of the tracks also show the music also capturing more of a ritualistic vibe as well as some melodic chants also be utilized briefly. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover Occultism and Alchemy with a concept revolving around Theion, the divine fire of transformation.
In my opinion this is a very great sounding collection from Precaria and if you are a fan of occult black metal, you should check out this compilation. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Ex Abyssia" "La Obra Negra Deicida" "Ex Nigredo" and "Heautontimorumenos". 8 out of 10.
