This is another review of an album from Hordes Of The Lunar Eclipse with the musical direction this time being grim sounding raw and primitive black metal and this is a review of their 2010 album "Darkbourne" which was released by Dark Horizon Records.
Drums range from slow, mid paced to fast drumming with a good amount of blast beats being thrown into the music, while the bass playing has a very dark tone with riffs that follow the riffing that are coming out of the guitars.
Rhythm guitars range from slow, mid paced to fast black metal riffs that are more raw and primitive sounding than the previous releases reviewed while still retaining a good amount of melody in the riffing along with one song having a slight punk edge, while the lead guitars are very melodic, raw and primitive sounding black metal guitar solos and leads, as for the classical guitars which are only used briefly they use finger picking and full chords to bring a darker atmosphere to the recording..
Vocals are all grim sounding black metal screams and cries that have a very depressive tone to them at times as well as some spoken word parts and demonic growls in addition there is a brief use of clean singing, while the lyrics cover dark and occult topics, as for the production it has a very dark, raw and primitive sound to it with some of the songs being long and epic in length.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Hordes Of The Lunar Eclipse and if you are a fan of grim sounding melodic, raw and primitive black metal, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "In The Dream Of A Moonless Midnight" "The Pact" "Alter" and "Blood And Starlight". RECOMMENDED BUY.
