Lux Nigrum are a duo with members from Chile that have been featured before in this zine and on this recording plays a dissonant form of satanic black metal and this is a review of their 2019 ep "Burning The Eternal Return" which will be released on cassette as a joint effort between Herejia Records and Street Metal Blasphemy.
A very dark, heavy and melodic sound starts off the ep while the faster sections of the songs also bring in a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats which also gives the music more of a raw feeling. Vocals are mostly grim sounding black metal screams and the music also has a great amount of 90's influences but done in more of a modern style.
At times the music also gets very dissonant sounding while also mixing it in with more of an old school style. Throughout the recording you can also hear a great mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts along with all of the musical instruments have a very powerful sound to them.
On this recording Lux Nigrum adds more dissonant structures to their raw and chaotic style of satanic black metal. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover Satanism, Anti Cosmic Doctrines and Chaos Magick themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Lux Nigrum and if you are a fan of raw and dissonant satanic black metal, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Burning the Eternal Return" and "Wrathful Chaos". 8 out of 10.
