Seattle, Washington's Hissing have returned with a new recording which shows the music going for more of a dissonant mixture of black and death metal and this is a review of their 2022 album "Hypervirulence Architecture" which will be released in July by Profound Lore Records.
A very dark yet heavy sound starts off the album along with some death metal growls a few seconds later. When the music speeds up a great amount of brutal sounding blast beats can also be heard while black metal screams are also a very huge part of the recording and dark sounding melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing.
At times the music also gets very dissonant sounding while all of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them. Throughout the album you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts along with some touches of avant garde noise also being utilized briefly.
When tremolo picking is added into some of the faster riffing they also give the songs more of a raw feeling along with the music also having its technical moments as well as one of the tracks also being very long and epic in length and as the album progresses a brief use of atmospheric sounding drones and spoken word parts can also be heard before returning back to a heavier direction. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover abstract themes, suffering and existentialism themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Hissing and if you are a fan of dissonant black and death metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Cells Of Nonbeing" "Operant Extinction" and "Meltdown". 8 out of 10.
