Aussichtslos are a band from Austria that has been featured before in this zine and on this recording plays a very grim and harsh form of black metal and this is a review of their 2021 album "Einsicht" which will be released in September by Purity Through Fire.
A very dark yet heavy sound starts off the album while the riffs also add in a good amount of melody. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams along with the guitar leads also being done in a very melodic style when they are utilized without really going into solo territory as well as all of t he musical instruments also having a very powerful sound to them.
The music also shows some influences of both the classic Finnish and German era's of black metal while the tremolo picking also gives the music more of a raw feeling when it is utilized. When the music finally speeds up on a couple of tracks a small amount of blast beats can be heard along with the main focus being more on a mid tempo style and the whole album also sticks to a heavier direction.
On this recording Aussichtslos remains true to the harsh and grim form of black metal that they had established on their previous release. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics are written in German and cover the inner struggle of human beings.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Aussichtslos and if you are a fan of grim and harsh black metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Sklaven" "Spiegel" and "Kerker". 8 out of 10.
