Dunes Of Ash are a band from an unknown location that plays a very old school and orthodox form of black metal and this is a review of their 2025 album "The Fall Of The Seven Sisters" which will be released on September 26th by Signal Rex.
A very fast and raw sound stars off the album along with a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams while the music is very heavily rooted in the 90's era as well as the riffs also adding in a decent amount of melody and all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them.
Spoken words can also be heard on a couple of tracks and add in a ritualistic vibe while the songs also add in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they also remain true to an old school style and the whole album sticks to a heavier direction.
Dunes Of Ash plays a style of black metal that is very heavily rooted in the 90's old school tradition. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover Devil Worship and the corruption of the Seven Sisters.
In my opinion Dunes of Ash are a very great sounding old school and orthodox black metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "The Eye Of The Seraphic Void" and "The Mortal's Shame". 8 out of 10.
