Lamashtus are a solo project from Spain that plays a very avant garde and dissonant form of black metal and this is a review of her 2021 album "Insentient-Ascendancy" which was released by Heretical Records.
Semi distorted riffing starts off the album while clean playing can also be heard briefly on a couple of tracks. Dissonant structures are also added into some of the heavier riffing as well as the faster sections of the songs also adding in a great amount of blast beats and the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams.
All of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them while some of the tracks are also very long and epic in length. When tremolo picking is utilized it also gives the music more of a raw feeling along with the songs also adding in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts.
Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing along with the music also having its avant garde moments as well as a later song also introducing guitar solos and leads onto the album. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover darkness, horror and occultism themes.
In my opinion Lamashtus are a very great sounding dissonant and avant garde black metal solo project and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Multiversal Confluence Of Tenebrous Space" "Transcendental Compulsion Of Spectral Flesh" and "Profane Embodiment Of Sorcerous Beings". 8 out of 10.
