Malum Mortuus are a band from Denver, Colorado that plays a very old school form of black metal with elements of thrash metal and this is a review of their 2020 ep "The unwilling Sacrifice" which was released by Imperial Darkness Records.
A very aggressive and heavy sound starts off the ep along with some grim black metal screams a few seconds later. When the music speeds up a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can be heard which also gives the songs more of a raw feeling while a small amount of growls and back up shouts can also be heard briefly.
Elements of thrash metal are also utilized quite a bit throughout the recording while the solos and leads bring in more of an old school style. The songs also mix in some influences from both the 80's and 90's era along with some of the riffing also adding in a good amount of melodies as well as ep also adding in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts and they also bring in a cover of The Misfits "Ghoul's Night Out".
Malum Mortuus plays a style of black emtal that is very heavily rooted in the 90's era as well as mixing in elements of thrash metal to create a sound of t heir own. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover Anti Christianity, Occultism and Paganism themes.
In my opinion Malum Mortuus are a very great sounding old school black metal band with elements of thrash metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Beneath The Ritual Knife" and "Wolves of Retribution". 8 out of 10
