This is a review of another recording from Venowl which continues their hybrid of black metal, doom and noise with the cassette being self released in 2010 and called "[::]".
Drums range from slow to mid paced playing with no fast drumming or blast beats being present on this recording with them only being used briefly since the music focus'es more on noise, while the sound effects bring elements of harsh noise to the recording and there is no use of a bass guitar present on this recording.
Rhythm guitars when they are utilized are slow to mid paced riffs that combine black metal, drone, doom, experimental and noise together to create a sound of their own but the noise parts are more dominant than the other instruments and there are no guitar solos or leads present on this recording.
Vocals are all high pitched black metal/harsh noise themes, while the lyrics cover darkness and occult themes, as for the production it has a very harsh, 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 cassette from Venowl and if you are a fan of black metal mixed with doom and harsh noise, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Invockkation Of The Spheres That Blacken Portant" and "The Scrawls Of Wyrd-Laden Knives". RECOMMENDED BUY.
