Mystruin are a band from Sweden that plays a very aggressive and melodic form of black metal and this is a review of their 2020 album "Calcination" which was released by Lamech Records.
Drum beats start off the album along with some heavier riffing a few seconds later while all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them. The riffs also add in a great amount of melody along with the solos and leads also being done in a very melodic style and all of the tracks are very long and epic in length.
When the music speeds up a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can be heard while the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams. A lot of the music is also very heavily rooted in the Swedish style along with the songs also adding in a great mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts.
Clean playing can also be heard in certain sections of the recording along with some atmospheric and ritualistic soundscapes also being utilized briefly on a couple of songs as well as one of the tracks also introducing spoken word parts and shouts onto the album. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover Occultism, Mysticism, Philosophy and Darkness themes.
In my opinion Mystruin are a very great sounding aggressive and melodic black metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Cosmic Liberation" and "Mirror Of Consciousness" . 8 out of 10.
