Huszar are a solo project from Argentina that plays a very progressive and ambient form of post black metal and this is a review of his 2017 album "Providencia" which was released by Anthrazit Records.
Ambient style synths start off the album along with some clean post rock style guitars a few seconds later and they also mix in with the heavier sections of the songs while the music also gets very progressive at times along with most of the tracks being very long and epic in length.
When the music speeds up a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can be heard which also gives the songs more of a raw feeling while the solos and leads are done in a very melodic fashion along with all of the musical instruments having a very powerful sound to them.
Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams while the songs also bring in a great mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts along with the riffs also bringing in a great amount of melody and at times the vocals also utilize a more depressive edge and as the album progresses elements of shoegaze can also be heard in certain sections of the recording and one of the tracks is an instrumental, spoken word parts are also used briefly on the closing song.
Huszar plays a musical style that mixes black metal, ambient, progressive and post rock to create a sound of his own, the production sounds very professional while the lyrics are written in Spanish and cover depression, angst and sadness themes.
In my opinion Huszar are very great sounding progressive and ambient post black metal solo project and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Todos Los Hipersueros" and "El Llanto Del Ultimo De Los Artesanos Celestiales". 8 out of 10.
