Gorgon are a band from France that has been featured before in this zine and plays a satanic and old school form of black metal and this is a review of their 2021 album "Traditio Satanae" which will be released in June by Osmose Productions.
A very fast and raw sound starts off the album along with a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. The riffs also add in a lot of melody while the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams as well as all of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them.
A lot of the music is very heavily rooted in the 90's while also sounding very modern at the same time. The songs also add in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts along with some of the riffs also adding in some dark sounding melodies as well as th e guitar leads also being done in a very melodic style when they are utilized and the whole album also sticks to a heavier direction.
On this recording Gorgon remains true to the old school style of satanic black metal that they had established on previous releases. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover Satanism, Blasphemy, Darkness and Death themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Gorgon and if you are a fan of fast, aggressive and old school satanic black metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Blood Of Sorcerer" "My Filth Is Worth Your Purity" "The Long Quest" and "At the Beginning Was Hate". 8 out of 10.
