CMPT are a solo project from Serbia that has had music reviewed before in this zine and plays a very raw and atmospheric form of black metal and this is a review of his 2021 album "Krv i pepeo" which will be released in December by Osmose Productions.
A very fast and raw sound starts off the album along with a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. Atmospheric sounding synths can also be heard in the background while the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams as well as some melodies also being added into the guitar riffing.
When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic style while the music is heavily rooted in the classic Eastern European tradition of the genre. Throughout the recording you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts as well as a couple songs also adding in a small amount of nature sounds, spoken word parts can also be heard briefly.
On this recording CMPT remains true to the raw and atmospheric style of pagan black metal that he had established on his previous release. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics are a concept album based upon the ritualistic side of dark Balkan Sorcery and it's spiritual offering to the ancient cult of Death.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from CMPT and if you are a fan of raw and atmospheric pagan black metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Seme ponoci" "Srce od trnja" and "Mesecev zub". 8 out of 10.
