Avaron are a solo project from Hungary that plays a very raw and atmospheric form of black metal and this is a review of his self titled 2021 album which was released by NGC Productions.
Water sounds start off the album along with some ambient and atmospheric style keyboards which also mixes in with the heavier sections of the songs at times. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams along with all of the drum beats also being programmed and all of the tracks are very long and epic in length.
At times the music also gets very symphonic sounding while all of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them. Melodies are also added into a lot of the guitar riffing along with the faster sections of the songs also adding in a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats which also gives the music more of a raw feeling.
A lot of the music is also very heavily rooted in the 90's second wave era along with the songs also adding in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts as well as one of the tracks also introducing clean playing onto the album, female vocals can also be heard briefly. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover the constructive and destructive powers of nature.
In my opinion Avaron are a very great sounding raw and atmospheric black metal solo project and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Children For The Eternal Blue" and "Our Grand Soundless Storm". 8 out of 10.
