HellGoat are a solo project from Sweden that recently has had music reviewed in this zine and on this recording plays a very raw and satanic form of black metal and this is a review of his 2021 ep "Den Hornbkladdes Aterkomst" which was released as a joint effort between Corrupted Flesh and Goatlordth Records.
A very dark and heavy sound starts off the ep while the faster sections of the songs also add in a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats which also gives the music more of a raw feeling. Vocals are mostyl grim yet high pitched black metal screams along with the tracks also adding in a lot of 90's influences.
Ritualistic sounding bells can also be heard briefly while the songs also add in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. There is also a brief use of clean playing on one of the tracks along with the riffing also avoiding the use of any melody except for the last song and focusing more on a power chord driven style, demonic voices can also be heard on the closing track as well as a brief use of melodic guitar leads.
On this recording HellGoat plays a style of satanic black metal that is very raw and traditional sounding. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics are written in Swedish and cover Satanism, Devil Worship, Hate and Murder themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from HellGoat and if you are a fan of raw and satanic black metal, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Tolv Pilar I Lejonets Hjarta" and "Evigt Morker". 8 out of 10.
