Wampyric Rites are a band from Ecuador that plays a very raw, old school and vampyric form of black metal and this is a review of their 2021 album "The Eternal Melancholy Of The Wampire" which will be released in February by Inferna Profundus Records.
Synths start off the album and also brings in elements of dungeon synth onto the recording before going into a very fast and raw musical direction which also utilizes a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams while the music is very heavily rooted in the 90's era.
Throughout the recording you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts while a great portion of the tracks are also very long and epic in length. At times the music also captures a very lo-fi atmosphere along with one of the songs also introducing guitar solos and leads onto the recording as well as the vocals also adding in a deeper growling approach on a later song.
Wampyric Rites plays a style of black metal that is very raw, old school and vampyric sounding. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover vampirism and darkness themes.
In my opinion Wampyric Rites are a very great sounding raw, old school and vampyric black metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Ancient Specters Of The Forlorn Forest" and "Grim Funeral Inside The Dusty Dungeons Of Time". 8 out of 10.
