Ninnagesh/Oculta/Blackhaertz Records/2008 CD Review


  Ninnagesh  are  a  band  from  Columbia  that  has  had  their  previous  album  reviewed  as  well  as  being  interviewed  before  by  this  zine  with  this  release  they  had  more  of  an  atmospheric,  raw,  primitive  and  melodic  approach  to their  satanic/occult  black  metal  and  this  is  a  review  of  their  2008  album  "Oculta"  which  was  released  by  Blackhaertz  Records.

  Drums  range  from  slow,  mid  paced  to  fast  drumming  with  some  blast  beats  being  thrown  into  the  music  at  times,  while  the  synths  which  are  utilized  a  good amount  throughout  this  recording  bring  a  very  dark  and  atmospheric  sound  to  the  music,  as  for  the  bass  playing  it  has  a  very  strong  and  powerful  tone  with  riffs  that  dominate  throughout  the  recording.

  Rhythm  guitars  range  from  slow,  mid  paced  to  fast  black  metal  riffs  that  are  very  melodic,  raw  and  primitive  sounding  with  some  traditional  metal  influences  being  thrown  into  the  riffing,  while  the  lead  guitars  are  very  melodic  sounding  guitar  solos  and  leads  that  utilize  a  great  amount  of  skill  and  talent,  as  for  the  classical  guitars  when  they  are  utilized  they  use  finger  picking  to  add  more  variety  to  the  music.

  Vocals a re  all  high  pitched  black  metal  screams,  while  the  lyrics  cover  Dark,  Satanic,  and  Occult  themes,  as  for  the  production  it  has  a very  strong  and  powerful  sound  where  you  can  hear  all  of  the  musical  instruments  that  are  present  on  this  recording.  

  In  my  opinion  this  was  another  great  recording  from  Ninnagesh  and  if  you  are  a  fan  of  atmospheric,  melodic,  raw  and  primitive  occult/satanic  black  metal,  you  should  check  this  album  out.  RECOMMENDED  TRACKS  INCLUDE  "Unholy  Liberation"  "Decadence  Force"  and  "Bergtrollets  Hen".  RECOMMENDED  BUY.
