Nivh are an international band with embers from Belarus and Russia that plays an atmospheric form of black metal and this is a review of their self released 2021 singles "Ichara" and "Marmar" which also contains both vocals and instrumental versions of the songs.
"Ichara"
Folk instruments start off the song along with some atmospheric sounds in the background which also mixes in with the heavier sections of the songs. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams as well as some death metal growls also being utilized at times. the riffs, guitar leads and solos also add in a great amount of melody, clean vocals can also be heard briefly and most of the music sticks to a slower direction and the second track is an instrumental version of the song reviewed. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover history and legends of Mother Earth.
"Marmur"
Acoustic guitars start off the song while the music also gets very atmospheric sounding at times. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic style along with the vocals being mostly high pitched black metal screams as well as a few growls and clear singing and the riffs also add in a great amount of melody and the second track is an instrumental version of t he previous reviewed song. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover history and legends of Mother Earth.
In my opinion Nivh are a very great sounding atmospheric black metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out these singles. 8 out of 10.
