Unrelenting Torment are a solo project from Aurora, Oregon that plays an occult form of black metal and this is a review of his self released 2021 album "Cursed By The Witch".
Rain and thunder sounds start off the album before going into a heavier direction while dark sounding melodies are also added into some of the riffing. All of the drum beats are also programmed along with the vocals being mostly angry sounding black metal screams and when the music speeds up a great amount of blast beats can be heard.
When tremolo picking is utilized it also gives the music more of a raw feeling while the songs also add in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. The songs also add in a good amount of old school influences as well as keeping everything up to date along with all of the musical instruments also having a very powerful sound to them.
When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic style along with some of the tracks also being very long and epic in length as well as one track also adding in a brief use of spoken word parts. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics are a concept album based upon a benevolent witch that is driven to hatred and makes a revenge pact with satan after her lover and coven are hunted down.
In my opinion Unrelenting Torment are a very great sounding occult b lack metal solo project and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Benevolence Turned Malevolent" "Death Ashes In The Winds Of Fall" and "Cursed By The Witch". 8 out of 10.
