Finland's Malum have returned with a new recording which continues the satanic style of black metal from their previous releases and this is a review of their 2021 album "Devil's Creation" which will be released in April by Purity Through Fire.
A very dark sounding intro starts off the album before going into a heavier musical direction while a great portion of the tracks are also very long and epic in length. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic style and the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams.
Synths can also be heard in some parts of the recording 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. Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing along with all of the musical instruments also having a very powerful sound to them, the music is also very heavily rooted in the Finnish tradition.
On this recording Malum remains true to the satanic black metal style that they had established on their previous release as well as utilizing some synths to take their sound to another level. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover Satanism and Occultism themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording form Malum and if you are a fan of satanic black metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Devil's Creation" and "Son Of the Dracul". 8 out of 10.
