Triskelion are a band from Spain that plays a very old school and misanthropic form of black metal and this is a review of their 2024 album "Triumph Of Msanthropy" which was released as a joint effort between Morbid Shrine Productions and Vertabrae.
Clean playing starts off the album before going into a very fast and raw musical direction which also utilizes a great amount of tremolo picking and blast b eats. Vocals are done in more of an angry black metal shouting style while the music is heavily rooted in the 90's era and all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them.
Throughout the recording you can also hear a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts while melodies can also be heard in some of the riffing at times. Synths can also be heard on a couple of tracks along with one song also adding in a brief use of clean chants and the album also avoids the use of solos and leads.
Triskelion plays a style of black metal that is very heavily rooted in the 90's second wave era. The production sounds very raw and old school while the lyrics are written in Spanish and cover Occultism and Celtic Paganism themes.
In my opinion Triskelion are a very great sounding old school and misanthropic black metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Hordas Paganas" and "Ritual Bloodshed". 8 out of 10.
