Aura are an international duo with members from Italy and Poland that h as had music reviewed before in this zine and on this recording plays an atmospheric, old school, raw, satanic and occult form of black metal and this is a review of their 2021 album "Falling Darkness" which was released by Art Inferna.
A powerful sounding bass guitar starts off the album along with some grim black metal screams a few seconds later. When the music speeds up a decent amount of blast beats can be heard while the recording is very heavily rooted in the 90's era and when tremolo picking is utilized they also give the songs more of a raw feeling.
Dark sounding melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing while the songs also add in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. When synths are utilized they also give the music more of an atmospheric feeling along with one song also adding in a small amount of ritualistic bells as well as the closing track also adding in some melodic chants.
On this recording Aura plays a style of black metal t hat is very raw and atmospheric in the early 90's tradition. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover Satanism, Occultism and Darkness themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Aura and if you are a fan of atmospheric, old school, raw, satanic and occult black metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Satan Id My Master" "Falling Darkness" and "We Are All Going To Die". 8 out of 10.
