MX are a duo form Germany that has had music reviewed before in this zine and plays a raw form of black metal and this is a review of their 2021 ep "In Traum der Wirklichkeit" which was released by Wolfmond Production.
A very fast and raw sound starts off the ep along with a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams while the songs also add in a decent amount of 90's influences and the guitar leads are also done in a very distorted style when they are utilized.
Most of the riffing is done on power chords which also gives the music more of a heavier edge while also avoiding the use of any melody. The bas guitar also adds in a very dark tone along with all of the music also sticking to more of a raw and brutal direction as well a s sticking to mostly a faster pace and only adding in a small amount of slow or mid tempo direction.
On this recording MX remains true to the raw style of black metal that they had establish on their previous release. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics are written in German and cover darkness, blasphemy and suicidal themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from MX and if you are a fan of raw black metal, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Weltsuizidförderungstag" and "In Traum der Wirklichkeit". 8 out of 10.
