Finland's Aegrus have returned with a new recording which continues the occult and satanic style of black metal from their previous releases and this is a review of their ep "The Carnal Temples" which will be released in 2022 by Osmose Productions.
A very heavy and aggressive sound starts off the ep while all of the tracks are long and epic in length. Vocals are mostly grim yet high pitched black metal screams along with 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 while the songs also add in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. Growls are also added into some parts of t he recording along with the solos and leads also being done in a very dark yet melodic style as well as the music also being heavily rooted in the old school style of the genre, one of the tracks also introduces clean playing onto the recording.
On this releases Aegrus remains true to the satanic and old school style of black metal that has been established on previous releases. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover devil worship and occultism themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Aegrus and if you are a fan of occult and satanic black metal, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INLUDE "In Death Rapture" and "Flesh And Blood". 8 out of 10.
