Cross Bringer are a band with members from Belgium and Russia that plays a mixture of black metal, crust and hardcore and this is a review of their 2020 album "The Signs Of Spiritual Delusion" which will be released in September by Consouling Sounds.
Atmospheric sounding drones start off the album along with a brief use of whispered spoken word parts before going into a heavier musical direction. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams while the faster sections of the songs also bring in a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats which also gives the songs more of a raw feeling.
Elements of hardcore and crust can also be heard quite a bit throughout the recording while the songs also add in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. A couple of the tracks are also very long and epic in length along with the riffs also adding in a decent amount of melody as well as the riffing also adding in some dissonant structures at times, a later track also introduces synths onto the recording before returning back to a heavier musical direction.
Cross Bringer plays a musical style that takes black metal, crust and hardcore and mixes them together to create a sound of their own. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover illusions, delusions, anger, grief, agony, deprivation, self-loathing and obsession themes.
In my opinion Cross Bringer are a very great sounding mixture of black metal, crust and hardcore and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "The Battle of The Weak" "Temptation Of Naivety (Untamable Black Dog)" and "Self-Inflicted Martyrdom".8out of 10.
