Heretic are a band from the Netherlands that plays a satanic mixture of black'n'roll and punk and this is a review of their album "Filthy Hymns For Sleazy Demons" which will be released in 2024 by Van Records.
Angry shouting vocals start off the album before going into a heavier direction which also brings in elements of punk rock. Touches of first wave black metal can also be heard at times along with the music also being heavily influenced by thrash metal and some of the riffing also adds in a small amount of raw tremolo picking.
Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing while all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them. Clear chants and singing can also be heard briefly along with the faster sections of the songs also adding in a small amount of blast beats and most of the recording sticks to a mid tempo direction.
Heretic plays a musical style that takes black'n'roll, thrash metal and punk and mixes them together to create a sound of their own. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover Satanism, Occultism, Blasphemy, Sex and Rock'n'Roll themes.
In my opinion Heretic are a very great sounding mixture of black'n'roll, thrash metal and punk and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Pandemonium Nights" "Holy Death Awaits" "Ritual Girl" and "Under The Spell of Satan". 8 out of 10.
