Khara Ojuun are an international duo with members from Germany and Russia that plays a shamanic form of black metal and this is a review of their 2026 ep "Shamanic Visions" which was released as a joint effort between Satanath and The End Of Time Records.
Spoken words start off the ep b3efore going into a heavier direction while also introducing folk instruments onto the recording. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams along with the faster sections of the songs also adding in a great amount of tremolo picking and b last b eats which also gives the music more of a raw feeling.
Throughout the recording you can also hear a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts while all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them. Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing along with the music also having its atmospheric moments, when throat singing is utilized they also give the ep more of a shamanistic atmosphere.
Kjara Ojuun plays a style of black metal that is very atmospheric, ritualistic and shamanistic sounding with some elements of folk music. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics are written in the Sakha language and cover the harsh winters of Siberia, nature, spirits and other worlds.
In my opinion Kjara ojuun are a very great sounding shamanic black metal duo and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Burning Cold" and "Road To The Moon". 8 out of 10.
