This is a review of a split album between France's Limbes and Mütterlein which was released by Les Acteurs de L'Ombre Productions and we will start off the review with Limbes a solo project that was previously known as Blurr Thrower and plays a Cascadian influenced form of occult black metal.
His side of t he split starts out with some melodic guitar leads and raw tremolo picking before going into a faster direction which also utilizes a great amount of blast beats. His track is over 24 minutes in length while the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams and the music also adds in a great amount of Cascading influences.
Throughout his side of the recording you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. All of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them along with the riffs also adding in a decent amount of melody as well as the riffing also having its repetitive moments, the music also brings in some atmospheric touches at times. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics are written in French and cover Occultism themes.
In my opinion Limbes are a very great sounding Cascadian influenced black metal solo project and if you are a f an of this musical genre, you should check out his side of the split.
Next up is Mütterlein a solo project that plays a ritualistic mixture of darkwave and doom metal
Her side of the split starts out with some electronic sounds along with some clean vocals a few seconds later. Spoken word parts can also be heard briefly before going into more of a heavier and atmospheric musical direction while the only track present on her side of the recording is over 19 minutes in length, elements of doom metal can also b e heard in the slower sections of her song and clean playing can also be heard briefly. The production sounds very dark and heavy while the lyrics cover solitary grief themes.
In my opinion Mütterlein is a very great sounding ritualistic mixture of darkwave and doom metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this solo project.
In conclusion I feel this is a very great sounding split and I would recommend it to all fans of atmospheric black, doom metal and darkwave. 8 out of 10.
