Nokturnicon MySpace Music Review

Nokturnicon are a 2 man band with one member from Florida and another one from Arkansas that plays a raw form of black metal and this is a review of their music from MySpace.

Drums are very fast with a lot of blast beats, while the bass playing which is mixed down low in the mix is tuned down low and has a dark sound.

Guitars while mostly black metal have some death metal influences with some slow riffs that also combine fast riffs that are very primal and give the music a brutal edge, I did not however hear that many guitar leads.

Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams while the lyrics seem to cover Satanic topics, as for the production it has a very raw feel.

In my opinion this band sounds really great and I hear plenty of potential in the music.
