Vampirska are a musical project from the United States that has had music reviewed before in this zine and plays a very raw and vampyric form of black metal and this is a review of their album "Vermilion Apparitions Frozen in Chimera Twilight" which will be released in 2022 by Inferna Profundus Records.
Eerie sounding synths start off the album and also mix in with the heavier sections of the music at times. When the music speeds up a decent amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can be heard which also gives the songs more of a raw feeling while the vocals are mostly grim sounding black metal screams.
A great portion of the songs are also very long and epic in length while the songs also mix in a decent amount of 90's influences. Dark sounding melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing along with the tracks also in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts as well as all of the musical instruments also having a very powerful sound to them, clean playing can also be heard briefly and when guitar solos and leads ar e finally utilized they are done in a very dark yet melodic style.
On this recording Vampirska goes for more of a raw and vampyric style of black emtal. The production sounds very dark, raw and lo-fi while the lyrics cover Vampirism and Nocturnal Astral Projection themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Vampirska and if you are a fan of raw and vampyric black metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Astral Transfixion: My heart Devoid Of Any Entity" and "The Vampyric Condition: Romanticism & Mystique Masked By An Empty Face... To Never Be Seen Again...". 8 out of 10.
