This is a review of another double cassette compilation by RDS 220 which continues the raw mixture of black metal and crust and the recording is called "Hell Is Truth Seen Too Late - Chapters III & IIII" and was released by Svart Blod.
Spoken word samples start off the compilation along with some drones, tribal beats and powerful sounding bass guitars a few seconds later before going into a very heavier direction while the vocals throw in crust style shouts and screams as well as utilizing some black metal screams.
When the music speeds up a great amount of blast beats and tremolo picking can be heard which also gives the songs more of a raw feeling along with some dark sounding melodies along with the songs also bringing in a great mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts as well as a brief use of growls and when guitar leads are utilized they are done in a very dissonant style, a decent amount of melody can also be heard in the guitar riffing and a couple of the tracks are very long and epic in length and on the second cassette clean playing and avant garde sounds can also be heard briefly.
On this recording RDS 220 add in some newer elements to their mixture of black metal and crust as well as not repeating themselves on this release, the production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover dark themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from RDS 220 and if you are a fan of black metal and crust, you should check out this compilation. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Lost God" and "Onction". 8 out of 10.
