Sweden's Wan have returned with a new recording which continues the old school, raw and satanic style of black metal from previous releases and this is a review of their 2022 album "Antichristian Douchebags" which will be released on February 25th as a joint effort between Corrupted Flesh Records and Fallen Temple.
A very heavy and aggressive sound starts off the album along with some high pitched black metal s creams a few seconds later. When the music speeds up a decent amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can b e heard which also gives the songs more of a raw feeling and growls can also b e heard at times.
The music also add in a great amount of first and second wave influences while the songs also add in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing along with some of the riffing also adding in touches of punk and thrash metal and the whole album also sticks to a heavier direction, all of t he musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them.
On this recording Wan remains true to the old school, raw and satanic style of black metal that they have established on previous releases. the production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover while the lyrics are written in a mixture of English and Swedish and cover Satanism, Anti Christianity, Occultism, Paganism, Darkness and Metal themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Wan and if you are a fan of old school, raw and satanic black metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "The Viper" Antichristian Douchebag" "Night Of The Pagans" and "Roots Of Metal". 8 out of 10.
