Finland's Korgonthurus has returned with a new recording which continues the satanic style of black metal from their previous releases and this is a review of their 2021 ep "XX" which was released by Woodcut Records.
A very evil sounding intro starts off the ep before going into a heavier musical direction while all of the instruments also have a very powerful sound to them. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams along with the music also adding in a great amount of old school influences.
All of the riffing is also done on power chords while also avoiding the use of any melody, solos or leads. When the music finally speeds up a small amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can be heard which also gives the recording more of a raw feeling and all of the music also sticks to a heavier direction.
On this recording Korgonthurus remains true to the satanic style of black metal that they have established on previous releases. The production sounds very raw and heavy while the lyrics are written in Finnish and cover Satanism themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Korgonthurus and if you are a fan of satanic black metal, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACK "Demonipaimen". 8 out of 10.
