San Antonio, Texas's solo project Pneuma Hagion has returned with a new recording which continues the mixture of war, black, doom and death metal from previous releases and this is a review of his 2020 album "Voidgazer" which will be released in December by Nuclear War Now! Productions.
A very dark, heavy and brutal sound starts off the album along with some guttural death metal growls while the slower sections of the songs also bring in elements of doom metal. When the music speeds up a great amount of tremolo picking, blast beats and war metal influences can be heard which also gives the songs more of a raw feeling.
At times the growls also get very bestial sounding while the songs also add in a great amount of 90's influences but also keeps it modern at the same time. Dark sounding melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing along with the tracks also adding in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts and the whole album also sticks to a heavier musical direction.
On this recording Pneuma Hagion remains true to the mixture of war, black, doom and death emtal that was established on previous releases. The production sounds very dark and heavy while the lyrics cover Gnosticism and Occultism themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Pneuma Hagion and if you are a fan of war, black, doom and death emtal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Aeons Of Slumber" "Anticosmic Incantations" "Gate To Worlds Beyond" and "Primordial". 8 out of 10.
