Omegaeturnum are a band from France that plays an old school and atmospheric form of black metal and this is a review of their 2024 album "1248" which will be released on November 25th by Van Records.
A very dark sounding intro starts off the album along with some angry sounding black metal screams which also takes the music into a heavier direction. When the music speeds up a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can be heard which also gives the songs more of a raw feeling.
All of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them while the riffs also add in a decent amount of melody. When keyboards are utilized they also give the music more of an atmospheric feeling along with the music also being very heavily rooted in the 90's era.
When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic style along with the songs also adding in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts as well as some of the tracks also being very long and epic in length, spoken word parts and clear vocals can also be heard briefly and one song is an instrumental also adds in a small amount of clean playing. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover the Great Old Ones.
In my opinion Megaeturnum are a very great sounding old school atmospheric black metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "The Endless Quietus" "Echoes From The Depths" and "In Outerverse Slumber". 8/5 out of 10.
