This is a review of a split ep between Mexico's No Peafowls and Comingforever which was released in 2016 by Cuerpo Records and we will start off the review with No Peafowls a band that plays a mixture of black metal, noise rock and no wave.
Their side of the split starts out with distorted amp noises and avant garde style soundscapes as well as a touch of harsh noise.Spoken word parts can also be heard briefly before going into more of a no wave direction along with a brief use of demonic sounding growls and the bass guitars also sound very powerful.
Both of the tracks sound very different from each other while before experimental at the same time along with the second song adding in more noise rock elements and melody. Grim black metal screams are also utilized at times. The production sounds very dark, raw and lo-fi while the lyrics cover real life themes.
In my opinion No Peafowls are a very great sounding mixture of black metal, noise rock and no wave and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out t his band. RECOMMENDED TRACK "Eye".
Next up is Comingforever a solo project that plays a very traditional form of black metal.
His side starts out with programmed drum beats before going into a heavier musical direction while the vocals are mostly grim sounding black metal screams. When the music speeds up a decent amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can also be heard which also gives the music more of a raw feeling.
Throughout his side of the recording you can also hear a great mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. A decent amount of melody can also be heard in some of the guitar riffing while both of the tracks sound different from each other and always sticks to a heavier direction. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover dark and violent themes.
In my opinion Comingforver are a very great sounding traditional black metal solo project and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out his side of t he split. RECOMMENDED TRACK "Eradicate".
In conclusion I feel this is a very great sounding split that shows 2 different styles of black metal and if you are a fan of the many different sub genres of black metal, you should check out t his split. 8 out of 10.
