U.S.A's Amiensus has returned with a new recording which shows the music going for an atmospheric and progressive style of black metal and this is a review of their 2024 album "Reclamation: Part One" which will be released in April by M-Theory Audio.
A very heavy, melodic and atmospheric sound starts off the album along with some synths while the solos and leads also add in a lot of melody. All of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them and when the music speeds up a great amount of blast beats can be heard.
When tremolo picking is added into the fast riffing they also give the songs more of a raw feeling. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams along with some death metal growls and clear singing also being utilized at times and the tracks also add in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts.
The album also has its progressive moments along with some tracks also adding in a small amount of clean playing. as well as some of the songs also being very long and epic in length, stringed instruments can also be heard in certain sections of the recording and one song also introduces acoustic guitars into the music and the closing track is an instrumental. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover philosophy, theology, psychology and mythology themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Amiensus and if you are a f an of atmospheric and progressive black metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Blink of The Moment" "Sun And Moon" and "Transcendence Through Grief". 8 out of 10.
