This is a review of a split album with Canada's Délétère and Germany's Sarkrista called "Opus Blasphematum" which will be released in Decembet by Sepulchral Productions and we will start off the review with Délétère who return with a very raw and epic form of black metal.
Their side of the split starts out with a very fast and raw sound which also utilizes a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they also remain true to a rawer direction while the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams and most of their tracks are also long and epic in length.
Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing and leads along with the songs also adding in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts as well as the songs also adding in a good mixture of both old school and modern influences, all of the musical instruments on their side of the recording also have a very powerful sound to them and keyboards can also be heard on the closing track. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics are written in French and cover Chaos and Pestilence themes
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Délétère and if you are a fan of raw and epic black metal, you should check out their side of the split. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "La cour des fanges".
Next up is Sarkrista who return with a satanic and occult form of black metal.
Their side of the split starts out with a very fast and r aw sound which also utilizes a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams while the music also brings in a great amount of Western European influences and all of t he musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them.
Throughout their side of the recording you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts along with all of the riffing being done on power chords and all of the music also sticks to a heavier direction. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover Satanism and Occultism themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Sarkrista and if you are a fan of satanic and occult black emtal, you should check out their side of the split. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Arrival Of The Horned" and "Unleash the Purging Fires".
In conclusion I feel this is a very great sounding split and I would recommend it to all fans of raw, epic, satanic and occult black emtal. 8 out of 10.
