Viamaer are a solo project form Poland that has recently been featured in this zine and on this recording takes his mixture of post black metal and shoegaze into an acoustic direction and this is a review of his self released 2026 ep "In lumine lunae (Acoustic Sessions)' which will b e released in April.
Acoustic guitars which add in a mixture of finger picking and full chords start off the ep while a couple of the tracks are also very long and epic in length. Drum beats are also utilized at times while the post rock and shoegaze elements are also mixed in with the cleaner sections of the music and all of the songs also stick to an instrumental direction, synths can also be heard briefly.
On this recording Viamaer takes songs off his previous full length and takes away the vocals and heavier parts of the release and takes his music into an acoustic direction as well as keeping everything instrumental while the production sounds very dark.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Viamaer and if you are a fan of acoustic music with elements of post rock and shoegaze, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "In excitiatione terrae" and "Smaragdus somnium". 8 out of 10.
