Parásito are a solo project from Spain that plays a very raw form of black metal and this is a review of his 2025 album "Despoblador II" which will be released in December as a joint effort between Signal Rex and Vertebrae.
A very distorted sounding intro starts off the album along with some demonic voices in the background before going into a very fast and raw musical direction which also utilizes a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats while the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams and a couple of the tracks are also very long and epic in length.
All of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them while the album also adds in a good amount of old school touches. Most of the album focuses on a faster direction along with some slow and mid tempo sections also being utilized at times, one song is also an instrumental and also adds in s small amount of ambient elements, dark sounding melodies can also be heard in some of the guitar riffing briefly. and synths as well as some spoken words are added on the outro
Parásito plays a style of black metal that is very raw and also mixes in influences from both the modern and old school eras of the genre as well as adding in a touch of ambient to create a sound of his own. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover the agonizing existentialism of everyday life.
In my opinion Parásito are a very great sounding raw black metal solo project and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this genre. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Gull" and "Huesos Arados". 8 out of 10.
