Baal are a band from Portugal that plays a very cold and melodic form of black metal and this is a review of their 2021 album "Epitaphion" which was released by Nekrogoat Heresy Productions.
A very fast, raw and melodic sound starts off the album along with a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. Vocals are mostly high pitched yet grim sounding black metal screams while the music also adds in a great amount of 90's influences and the guitar solos and leads also add in a lot of melodies.
Throughout the recording you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts while one of the tracks is also very long and epic in length. All of the music also sticks to a heavier direction along with all of the music also being aggressive from beginning to end of the album.
Baal plays a style of black emtal that is very raw, melodic, cold and traditional sounding. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cove r Occultism, Death and Hatred themes.
In my opinion Baal are a very great sounding cold and melodic black metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Wolves Gathering For The Hunt" and "Disown The Essence of Letting Go". 8 out of 10.
