Lord Agheros are a 1 man band from Italy that plays a very epic form of ambient black metal and this is a review of their 2012 album "Demiurgo" which was released by My Kingdom Music.
Drum programming ranges from slow, mid paced to fast beats with no blast beats being programmed into the music, while the synths bring a very epic, atmospheric ambient sound to the music with influences from classical music and theatrical opera, as for the bass playing it has a very dark tone with riffs that follow the riffing that is coming out of the guitars.
Rhythm guitars range from slow, mid paced to fast black metal riffs that are very dark, raw and primitive sounding while utilizing a great amount of melodic riffing, while the lead guitars are very melodic sounding guitar solos and leads, as for the classical guitars when utilized they use finger picking and full chords to enhance the darkness that is coming out of the music.
Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams with some deep growls, clean singing female vocals, Gregorian chanting and spoken word parts being utilized at times, while the lyrics cover a 2 part concept album with chapter 1 and 2 being about the souls of good and evil from Erebo's and Nyx's sons with a lot of references to the philosopher Plato and Greek Mythology, as for the production it has a very dark, epic, raw and primitive sound with chapter 2 being all atmospheric music.
In my opinion Lord Agheros are a very great sounding epic, and atmospheric black metal and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Eris" "Thanatos" "Erebo" and "Ker". RECOMMENDED BUY.
