AD Atausma are a duo from Sweden that plays a very raw form of black metal and this is a review of their self released 2025 album "Necrodivergent Black Metal".
A synth orientated intro 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 beats. Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing while the music also adds in a great amount of second wave influences.
Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams while the songs also add in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. All of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them along with some of the mid tempo sections also adding in touches of classic rock and traditional metal.
When guitar solos and leads are utilized they also bring in more of an old school metal/hard rock style along with the riffs also adding in a decent amount of melody as well as the music also updating the music for the modern era with elements of post rock at times, clean playing can also be heard briefly and spoken words are also added on the closing track. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover darkness and sorcery themes.
In my opinion AD Atausma are a very great sounding original raw black metal duo and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Frozen Blood" and "Domes Of Fire". 8 out of 10.
