Rohtang are a solo project from Sweden that plays a very raw and atmospheric form of depressive black metal and this is a review of his 2021 demo "Entering The Gate Of Malevolent Darkness" which will be released on April 23rd by Corrupted Flesh Records.
A very dark synth orientated intro starts off the demo along with some clean playing and drum beats a few seconds later before going into a heavier direction. Vocals are mostly high pitched yet depressive black metal screams while all of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them.
Most of the tracks are also very long and epic in length while the atmospheric elements and synths also mix in with the heavier sections of the songs. When the music speeds up a small amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can be heard on a couple of tracks which also gives the recording more of a raw feeling as well as most of the music also sticking to a very slow direction.
Rohtang plays a style of depressive black metal that is very slow, atmospheric, raw and synth orientated. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover Darkness, Depression, Misery and Spiritual Demise themes.
In my opinion Rohtang are a very great sounding raw and atmospheric depressive black metal solos project and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this demo. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Entering The Gate Of Malevolent Darkness" and "Journey Through The Dungeon Of Pestilence". 8 out of 10.
