Black Faith/Nightscapes/Throats Productions/2017 CD Review


  Black  Faith  are  a  band  from  Italy  that  has  been  featured  before  in  this  zine  plays  a  very  raw  and  satanic  form  of  black  metal  and  this  is  a  review  of  their  2017  album  "Nightscapes"  which  was  released  by  Throats Productions.

  A  very  heavy  sound starts  off  the  album  along  with  some  high  pitched  black  metal  screams  which  also  leads  up  to  some  dark  sounding  melodies  and  when t he  music  speeds  up  a  great  amount  of  tremolo  picking  and  blast  beats  can  be  heard  which  also  gives  the  music  more  of  a  raw  feeling  and  the  music  is  rooted  in  the  90's  second  wave  style.

  When  guitar  leads  are  utilized  they  are  done  in  a  very  dark  yet  melodic  fashion  and  deep  demonic  growls  can  also  be  heard  at  times  and  spoken  word  parts  along  with  keyboards  are  also  used  briefly  and  some  of  the  tracks  also  bring  in  a  great  mixture  of  slow,  mid  paced  and  fast  parts and  some  of  the  songs  are  also  very  long  and  epic  in  length.

  Keyboards  also  make  a  return  on  a  later  track  for  a  few  seconds  and  there  is  also  a  brief  use  of  acoustic  guitars  on  some  songs  while  the  main  focus  is  more  on  a  heavier  style  and  towards  the  end  a  bass  guitar  lead  is  added  onto  the  recording  and  the  outro  adds  in  more  of  a  tribal  and  ritualistic  approach.

  Black  Faith  creates  another  recording  that  remains  true  to  the  raw  and  satanic  style  of  black  metal  from  previous  releases  while  also  showing  a  great  amount  of  progress  as  musicians  and  expanding  on  their  musical  style,  the  production  sounds  very  raw  and  heavy  while  the  lyrics  cover  Satanism,  Occultism,  and  Darkness  themes.

  In  my  opinion  this  is  another  great  sounding  album  from  Black  Faith  and  if  you  are  a  fan  of  raw  and  satanic  black  metal,  you  should  check  out  this  recording.  RECOMMENDED  TRACKS  INCLUDE  "Obsceratio"  "In  Total  Disgust"  and  "Nightscapes".  8/5  out  of  10.

Black Faith/Jubalite DiaBOLO/2010 Demo Review


  Black Faith are a band from Italy that plays a very fast and raw form of satanic black metal and this is a review of their 2010 demo "Jubalite DiaBOLO".

Drums are very fast and primal with a  lot of blast beats and some mid  paced and slow playing, while the bass playing uses a mixture of slow, mid  paced to fast riffs that follow the guitars and at times they have a powerful sound of their own..

Rhythm guitars are a mixture of slow, mid  paced to very fast primitive and raw black metal riffs while the lead guitars when they are utilized are very dark sounding and primitive black metal guitar leads.

Vocals are all high pitched black metal screams, while the lyrics cover Satanism and Anti-Christianity, as for the production it is very dark, raw, and heavy sounding.

In my opinion Black Faith are a very good raw satanic black metal band that should appeal to all fans of this genre. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "My Walk In The Dark" and "Seduced By The Evil One". RECOMMENDED BUY.
